Heat the sugar in a 4 quart pot over medium heat until it turns a deep amber color. Watch it carefully because it will burn very quickly. Remove from the heat and add about 1/4 cup of the cream/corn syrup mix to it.

Once the mixture is cooled, pour it into the ice cream maker and churn it according the manufacturer's instructions. After the ice cream has formed, after about 25 minutes, scoop about 1/4 of it into a plastic container. Sprinkle some of the chopped pistachios over the top of it along with some chopped rosemary.
