Combine the milk, heavy cream, and vanilla bean pod and seeds in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Warm, stirring occasionally, until the mixture just begins to steam and small bubbles form around the edges — do not let it boil. Remove from the heat and let steep for 5 minutes, then discard the vanilla pod.
