Meanwhile, in a saucepan, heat the half-and-half, cream, salt, and vanilla bean over medium heat, stirring occasionally to make sure the mix doesn't burn or possibly stick to the bottom of the pan. When the cream mix reaches a fast simmer (don't let it boil), turn off the heat. Set aside to infuse for 10 min.

Strain over the croissant cubes to remove the vanilla bean, and let soak 15 min, gently turning the cubes over once. Empty the mix into the baking dish. Let soak another 30 min, or possibly overnight, in the refrigerator. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the baking dish in a warm water bath.
