Ingredients:
6 egg yolks
1/3 cup sugar, or to taste
pinch of salt
1/2 cup marsala wine
Directions:
In a double boiler, combine the egg yolks, sugar and salt.
Using a hand-held mixer, beat until the eggs are pale and creamy, about 3 minutes. Slowly whisk in the wine.
Place over gently simmering (not boiling) water. Continue to beat constantly until the custard is thick and doubled in volume, about 8 minutes.
Spoon into stemmed glasses or pour into custard cups and serve warm.
Personal Suggestion: The Zabaglione is a classic dessert, if you want to serve it cold, remove the warm custard from the heat and place the pan in a bowl of ice cubes to cool rapidly. beat 2 cups whipping cream until it holds its shape. Using a spatula, fold the whipped cream into the custard.
