Slowly add hot, not boiling, milk mixture. Pour back into pot and remove vanilla bean. Add ground pistachios and stir over low heat with a wooden spatula until cream begins to thicken. Do not boil.
Cool pistachio cream over an ice water bath, stirring occasionally. Mix chopped pistachios with honey and add to cream. Pour mixture into an ice cream maker and follow manufacturer's instructions. If you do not have an ice cream maker, pour into a shallow metal tray and freeze for about 4 hours, stirring during first hour.
