Heat over medium heat until it begins to steam, but do not boil.

Step 4: Temper the Eggs:

Slowly add the hot milk mixture to the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.

Step 5: Cook Until Thickened:

Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it reaches 160°F.

Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
