Method

Split the vanilla beans lengthwise and scrape out the seeds. Rub the seeds into a small potion of the sugar to distribute them evenly and break up any clumps.
Combine the heavy cream, vanilla bean–sugar mixture, remaining sugar, vanilla bean pods, and orange zest in a saucepan. Heat to scalding, then remove from the heat and let infuse for about 30 minutes.
