|
Method:
-
In the top half of
a double boiler or in a bowl, away from the
heat, whisk the egg yolks with the sugar until
pale yellow. Beat in the marsala or wine.
-
Place the pan or
bowl over a pan of simmering water, and continue
whisking until the custard is frothy and evenly
coats the back of a spoon, 6-8 minutes. Do not
let the upper container touch the hot water, or
the zabaglione may curdle.
-
Stir in the orange
rind and serve the zabaglione immediately.
