Another simple and delicious Marsala recipe – and one rather beyond sinful – is the most sensuous of all desserts, Zabaglione.
The ingredients are few:
Sugar - 1 tablespoon per person
Egg yolks 1 per person
Marsala 2 tablespoon per person
Remember, no matter how many people you are making this for, the ratio 1:1:2 applies
Bring water to boil in the bottom of a Bain-marie. Reduce to medium-low heat.
In the top of the upper container (porcelain preferred) whisk or beat with a electric hand blender at medium high speed the egg yolks and sugar until smooth and creamy. Slowly add the Marsala and continue beating until the mixture becomes light and frothy/fluffy/foamy. NEVER COOK THE EGG.
Serve in champagne glasses with biscotti.
