Step 1: You will need

  • 3 eggs
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • some Marsala wine
  • 1 long-stemmed glass to serve in
  • 1 wire whisk
  • 1 round-bottomed copper pan

Step 2: Combine the ingredients

Separate the yolks from three eggs, and add them to the pan. Add half an eggshell full of Marsala wine and about three tablespoons of sugar, and then whisk the ingredients together.

Step 3: Heat

Hold the pan over simmering water and whisk vigorously for several minutes, until the mixture is thick and shiny, and double the original volume.

Step 4: Serve

Zabaglione should be served immediately, while it is still warm. Serve it in a tall-stemmed glass with a finger sponge biscuit.
