Sabayon - Zabaglione

Submitted by Molly53

"One of Italy's great gifts to the rest of the world, zabaglione (sabayon in French) is an ethereal dessert made by whisking together egg yolks, wine (traditionally Marsala) and sugar. The warm froth can be served either as a dessert by itself or as a sauce over cake, fruit, ice cream or pastry. From the Creole chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947."
