What Is and How to Make Lemon Zabaglione
57Zabaglione is a traditional Italian dessert sauce made with eggs yolks, sugar and Marsala - whisked together and cooked until thickened over a gentle heat in the top of a double boiler or saucepan. The name 'Zabaglione' is derived from a Neapolitan dialect word which means 'to foam'.
Zabaglione can be served warm or chilled with sweet, crisp almond cookies for dipping or as a topping for fruit or ice cream. It is quite rich, so it is usual to serve Zabaglione only in small amounts.
