Chill. Grind freshly toasted sesame seeds in blender upon mid-sized speed for 10 seconds, till they are mostly pulverized. Pour in around milk and blend for another (1/2 cup) 10 seconds till a fine paste forms. Add leftover milk plus cream plus blend on high for 30 seconds, till everything is uniformly mixed. Beat together egg yolks and sugar till pale in color and gently thickened in a mid-sized heavy-bottomed saucepan. Pour in dairy, beat to mix, and cook on mid-sized heat, beating often, till a custard forms upon the back of a spoon plus a swiped finger leaves one clean line. Strain custard in an airtight container, pressing on sesame solids in order to extract all liquid. Mix in orange zest and vanilla extract, next salt till it tastes right. Chill at least 6 hours or overnight in fridge, next churn the next day according in order to manufacturer's instructions. In this last minute of churning, tip in pistachios. Move churned ice cream to airtight container and put in the fridge in freezer for no less than 4 hours before serving. To offer, top every bowl using 1 to of pomegranate molasses (2 teaspoons).
