Ingredients:
1 lb (450 g) red fruit (strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, cherries)
4 egg yolks
1/3 cup (3 oz) granulated sugar
3 oz sweet white wine such Marsala
3 oz whipped cream (optional)
2 tsp cornstarch or arrowroot
Directions:
Cut the fruit and place them equally into 4 small bowls.
In a double boiler (over simmering warm water over low heat) mix the sugar and 4 eggs yolks for 2 minutes
with a whisk.
Warmed up the wine a little. Keep on beating the mixture with an electric mixer for 8 to 10 minutes and
slowly pour the wine and cornstarch into the mixture until it becomes thick and frothy and hold its shape
(it should almost triple in volume).
Put aside.
(Optional): Meanwhile, beat the cream with the electric mixer for approximately 3 minutes. Fold
carefully the whipped cream into the zabaglione.
Pour the mixture on top of the fruit.
Place the bowls in the oven and grill for 1 to 2 minutes maximum depending on the oven (check constantly) until
obtaining a nice golden colour on top.
Bon appétit !
