Zabaglione (pronunciation – dzaba – jo -ne) is an Italian dessert, or sometimes a beverage, made with egg yolks, sugar, sweet Marsala wine, and sometimes whole eggs. The dessert version is a light custard, whipped to incorporate a large amount of air. Since the 1960s, in restaurants in US areas with large Italian populations, zabaglione is usually served with strawberries, blueberries, peaches, etc.
Ingredients
6 large egg yolks
120g sugar
