In a medium saucepan, combine milk, cream, and half the sugar. Heat over medium until steaming (not boiling).

In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolks with the remaining sugar and salt until lightened in color.

Slowly ladle hot dairy into the yolks while whisking constantly. Return the whole mixture to the saucepan.

Stir over medium-low heat until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon (170–175°F / 77–80°C). Do not boil.

Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla and Bona Furtuna Forté EVOO. Strain through a fine mesh sieve if desired. Chill completely, at least 4 hours.

Pour the chilled base into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. *(For Breville Smart Scoop™, pre-cool the machine, select “ice cream” hardness, then press start.)*

Transfer to a container and freeze until firm, at least 2 hours.

Scoop into bowls. Drizzle with Bona Furtuna Grand Cru EVOO and sprinkle with flaky salt.
