Description

Zabaglione is a well-known Italian dessert from the Seventies

Method

  1. 1

    Into the mixing bowl, place the egg yolks and sugar and start to whisk them (not on the heat yet) with an electric hand whisk or a balloon whisk until the mixture is pale and creamy - this will take about 4 minutes. Then gradually whisk in the Marsala bit by bit.

    Now transfer the bowl to the saucepan - keep the heat very low - and continue whisking until the mixture thickens. This can sometimes be rather slow (10-15 minutes), but don't be tempted to turn the heat up because, if the mixture becomes too hot, it will curdle.

    Better to keep the whisk in one hand and a crossword in the other, so you don't get too bored!

    When it does thicken, pour it into four warmed wine glasses and serve straightaway.
