Peel the kiwis and cut them into 3 mm thick slices. In a saucepan, whisk the egg yolks with the vergeoise until foamy and pale. Gradually incorporate the cream, whisking continuously.

Cook over low heat, stirring with a spatula, until the cream thickens to a custard-like consistency.

Serve immediately for peak flavor and texture.
