Traditional Italian Dessert Zabajone

A traditional Italian dessert Zabajone is a delicious treat for the whole family. Well maybe not the whole family as it is full of Marsala wine so perhaps make it when you have no children to dinner.

As with all dishes from Piedmont this Traditional Italian zabajone recipe requires you to use authentic local ingredients to achieve the results you want.

Zabajone Ingredients:

Eggs,

sugar,

Marsala wine,

Maraschino is best but you can use another light- colored liqueur,

sponge fingers.

Calculate the quantities as follows:

For each person: three egg yolks, three teaspoonfuls of castor sugar, and a wine glass of wine and liqueur mixed equally.

Cooking Instructions

Zabajone is a kind of syllabub. It is made with Marsala and Maraschino.

Whip up the yolks of the eggs with the sugar, then gradually add the wine and liqueur mixture. Put this in a bain-marie, and stir until it has thickened to the consistency of a custard. To avoid disaster ensure that it does not boil.

Serve hot in custard glasses with the sponge fingers.
