Combine milk, sugar, yolks, cornstarch, vanilla beans (including pods), and salt in a large saucepan and whisk to combine.

Place over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick and, when you draw a spoon through the custard, there is a distinct separation and it doesnt immediately fall back on itself, about 20 to 25 minutes.

Meanwhile, nest a fine mesh strainer in a large bowl and set aside.
4
When custard is ready, remove from heat, pour into the nested strainer, and push on the custard with a rubber spatula to pass through and remove any lumps.
5
Stir in butter until melted and smooth.
