• Whisk egg yolks and remaining 1/2 cup sugar in medium bowl. Gradually whisk in hot milk mixture. Return custard to saucepan. Cook over low heat until custard thickens and leaves path on back of spoon when finger is drawn across, stirring constantly, about 10 minutes (do not boil). Strain into large bowl. Chill until cold, about 2 hours.
• Stir 1 cup whipping cream and chopped pistachios into custard. Process mixture in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to container and freeze. (Ice cream can be prepared 3 days ahead.)

• Strain; cool. Add cream, coloring and kirsch; freeze in ice cream freezer or refrigerator freezer.

Steps:

• Put pudding mix in a small bowl, whisk in 2 cups of cold milk.
• Pre chill your ice cream machine for about 5 min (if pre chilling is required by manufacture).
• Pour pudding mixture into machine and follow manufacturers directions.
• If using the nuts, add them to the mixture when it is about half done, and finish processing; OR, follow the manufacturers directions for adding chopped candy bars to ice cream, and add the chopped nuts following those directions.
• Store any leftover ice cream in the freezer in a tightly covered container.
• Press a piece of plastic wrap into the surface of the ice cream before covering the container, to prevent ice crystals from forming.

Steps:

• Mix sweetened condensed milk, milk, and pudding mix together in a bowl; transfer to an ice cream maker and process according to manufacturers' instructions.

Steps:

• Reserve a quarter of the pistachios and finely grind the remainder in a food processor. Tip into a pan with the milk and sugar, and bring gently to the boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Remove from the heat, leave to cool, then chill.
• Finely chop the reserved pistachios. Whip the cream to soft peaks. Fold in the custard, almond extract and then the nut milk until evenly mixed. Churn in an ice cream machine or put the bowl in the freezer until the mixture is set 5cm in from the edges. Remove and whisk to break down the large ice crystals. Freeze and whisk again, then transfer to a rigid container and scatter with the chopped pistachios. Freeze completely until firm.
• Half an hour before serving, transfer the ice cream to the fridge to soften.

Steps:

• Pulse 3/4 cup pistachios in a coffee grinder until finely ground. Transfer to a blender.
• Pulse flax seeds in a coffee grinder until finely ground. Add to the blender.
• Pour coconut milk into the blender. Add vanilla extract, stevia powder, xanthan gum, coconut oil, almond extract, and black salt; blend until very smooth, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer blender container to the freezer to chill mixture briefly, about 15 minutes.
• Pour mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer's instructions, adding 1/2 cup chopped pistachios during the last few minutes of churning. Transfer to a lidded container before serving.

Steps:

• In a small pot, simmer heavy cream, milk, sugar and salt until sugar completely dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove pot from heat. In a separate bowl, whisk yolks. Whisking constantly, slowly whisk about a third of the hot cream into the yolks, then whisk the yolk mixture back into the pot with the cream.
• Return pot to medium-low heat and gently cook until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 170 degrees on an instant-read thermometer).
• Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Whisk in pistachio paste and almond extract. Cool mixture to room temperature. Cover and chill at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Churn in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer's instructions. Serve directly from the machine for soft serve, or store in freezer until needed.

Steps:

• Add ground pistachios and ¼ cup of the sugar to a pan. Add milk and bring to boil. Add vanilla, stir and remove from heat.
• Add the 5 egg yolks and remaining ½ cup sugar to a bowl, and mix well. Temper the egg yolks by taking a ladle's worth of hot milk from the pan and pouring into the bowl with the eggs, constantly stirring.
• Add back to heat and cook for 7-10 minutes over medium-low heat, don't let it boil. Once done, strain into a bowl, pressing with a spoon to let the cream come through; then place in refrigerator to chill for 2 hours.
• Remove from fridge, and mix in heavy cream and the ½ cup of whole pistachios.
• Turn on ice cream maker, slowly pour mixture into ice cream maker and proceed as directed, churning for about 10-12 minutes .
• Empty into freezer safe bowl and let chill for 2 hours (if you can wait!) Then serve.
