In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Slowly whisk in the infused milk and egg yolks. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until bubbling. Lower heat and cook for about 1 minute, continuing to whisk, until thickened. Remove from the heat, transfer to a large measuring cup with a spout, through a fine mesh sieve and stir in the vanilla extract.
