Test Kitchen Tip
When cooking the yolk mixture
over barely simmering water,
check the temperature with a
thermometer. Once it reaches
145°, cook it for 3 minutes more.
Instructions
Beat egg yolks and sugar in a
metal bowl with a mixer on
medium speed until mixture is
thick, lemon-colored, and sugar
dissolves. Decrease speed to low
and beat in Marsala until
combined.
Set bowl over a pan of barely
simmering water (pan should
not touch water). Cook yolk
mixture, beating constantly with
mixer on medium speed until
thickened, forms a ribbon when
beaters are lifted, and a
thermometer inserted into
mixture registers 145° for
3 minutes, about 8–10minutes
total. (Don’t cook zabaglione too
long or it might curdle.)
Off heat, stir in whipped cream
and vanilla.
Serve zabaglione warm
(immediately) or chill
completely; top with
strawberries and cookies just
before serving.
