Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 19

Crust
1 5.5-ounce package amaretti cookies (Italian macaroons)*
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, hot
Filling
1/2 cup dried currants
1 1/2 cups sweet Marsala
3/4 cup sugar
10 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons dark corn syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 1/3 cups chilled whipping cream
Sauce
2 cups sweet Marsala
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
5 fresh strawberries, halved
*Amaretti are available at Italian markets and some supermarkets.

Steps:

  • For crust:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Finely grind amaretti cookies in processor (makes about 1 1/2 cups crumbs). With processor running, gradually add melted butter and process until crumbs begin to stick together. Press crust mixture onto bottom and up sides of 9-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom. Bake crust until pale golden, about 6 minutes. Cool. Gently press up bottom of pan just to loosen crust from sides (do not remove from pan). Place crust in freezer.
  • For filling:
  • Soak currants in 1/2 cup Marsala in small bowl for 1 hour.
  • Whisk remaining 1 cup Marsala, sugar and yolks in large metal bowl. Set bowl over saucepan of rapidly simmering water and whisk until candy thermometer inserted into mixture registers 170°F, about 4 minutes. Remove bowl from over water. Whisk in corn syrup, vanilla and nutmeg. Refrigerate zabaglione until cool, whisking occasionally, about 20 minutes.
  • Beat cream in bowl to stiff peaks. Add zabaglione and beat just until smooth. Drain currants and fold into zabaglione (reserve Marsala for another use). Place in freezer until slightly stiffened but not frozen, about 1 hour.
  • Spoon zabaglione cream into crust, mounding in center. Freeze until almost firm, about 2 hours. Cover and freeze until firm, at least 6 hours or overnight.
  • For sauce:
  • Stir Marsala and sugar in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil until syrup is reduced to generous 2/3 cup, about 17 minutes. Add lemon peel and nutmeg and boil 1 minute. Cool slightly. (Can be prepared 8 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Rewarm over low heat before serving.)
  • Remove tart from pan. Transfer tart to platter. Arrange strawberries around top edge of tart. Cut into wedges. Serve, passing warm sauce separately.

Categories     Wine     Citrus     Fruit     Dessert     Vegetarian     Lemon     Kidney Friendly     Pescatarian     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes about 6 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large eggs
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
Grated zest of 2 lemons
Juice of 1 lemon
1/3 cup Muscat or other dessert wine

Steps:

  • Combine all the ingredients in a stainless steel bowl and set aside.
  • Choose a saucepan large enough to set the bowl over and fill it with 2 inches of water. Bring to a simmer.
  • Whisk the egg mixture in the bowl. Place the bowl over the simmering water and whisk vigorously until it is about triple in volume and thick and frothy. Lift the bowl off the steam a few times, while whisking, to insure that the mixture does not get too hot and scramble the eggs. The total cooking time will be about 8 minutes. Remove the bowl from the heat and whisk to cool slightly. Serve now, or cover with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface and use within 2 hours. It may need to be whisked again just before serving.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh eggs, lemon juice, and zest will give your zabaglione the best flavor.
  • Whisk constantly: This will help to prevent the eggs from curdling.
  • Cook over low heat: This will also help to prevent the eggs from curdling.
  • Don't overcook: The zabaglione should be thick and creamy, but not solid.
  • Serve immediately: Zabaglione is best enjoyed fresh.

Conclusion:

Lemon zabaglione is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed on its own or used as a topping for other desserts. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give lemon zabaglione a try!
