I live in Japan and really wanted to make my own green tea ice cream. Don't get me wrong, this ice cream tastes good (most ice cream does, but it was lacking in green tea flavor and color and seemed to be overpowered by the vanilla flavor (even with only half of one bean. It tasted more like vanilla ice cream with a hint of green tea. That wasn't exactly what I was aiming for.

This icecream is amazing! It's a bit challenging, because you are making a custard base, but it's so worth it. With the custard the trick is to just stay with your pot and watch it, make sure it doesn't curdle up. However, if it does curdle, when you strain it you get most of the lumps out anyway. It's easier if you use a thermometer. The only change that I made to this recipe was to add 3 tablespoons of the green tea powder (Matcha instead of two. Tasted even better than at my favorite sushi joint!
