    Pour the hot milk into yolk/sugar mixture and mix well.
    Pour milk/yolk/sugar mixture back into pot and heat on medium until thicker to make a custard (DON'T LET IT BOIL! also, if you can't get it to a custard thickness,just get it as thick as you can).
    Pour custard in with beaten egg whites and mix well.
    Add sea salt (keep adding salt until it tastes salty sweet, but be careful not to add to much).
    Put mixture in fridge to cool.
    Once cool, add cream and vanilla .

    Freeze, following your ice cream maker's instructions.
    If you don't have an ice cream maker pour mixture into 1 or 2 metal cake pans and set in freezer. Let sit until edges become firm, then remove and mix. Repeat until uniformly frozen.
