Lacy Fruit Cups With Sabayon Sauce Food

FRUIT SABAYON

Steps:

• Heat water in a pan.
• Allow it to boil.
• The pan is to be used as a double boiler.
• Reduce heat, allow to simmer.
• Beat egg yolks in a bowl.
• Add sugar to the egg yolks.
• Mix well.
• Keep this bowl containing yolks and sugar (sabayyon) over the pan in which the water is simmering.
• Keep mixing the tolks- sugar mixture for 3-5 minutes while holding it over the pan.
• Put the chopped fruits in a bowl.
• Pour the sabayyon over the fruits.
• Gratinate for 2-3 minutes until a crisp brown colour appears over the fruits.
• Serve immediately if you want a hot dessert or add some ice cream (your favourite flavour) over the fruits-sabayyon mixture and serve as a cold dessert.
• Pour the sabayyon over this.

BERRIES WITH SABAYON

Steps:

• combine strawberries and raspberries in a bowl.
• divide among 6 dessert goblets or dish, set aside.
• To Make Sabayon:.
• In large heatproof bowl over saucepan of gently simmering (not boiling) water, whisk together egg yolks, Marsala and sugar until thick enough to mound softly on spoon (5 to 7 minutes).
• spoon over fruit, sprinkle with almonds if using.

SABAYON WITH STRAWBERRIES

Steps:

• Preparing the strawberries:
• About an hour before serving the dessert, rinse the strawberries (stems on) and drain them on paper towels. Slice off the stems and halve or quarter the strawberries lengthwise, depending on size, into a bowl. Sprinkle over the sugar and the lemon juice; fold gently together to blend well. Taste a strawberry, add more sugar or lemon juice if needed, and set aside to macerate.
• Whipping the sabayon:
• If you want to serve the sabayon warm, make it at the last minute. If you want to glaze the sabayon under the broiler, or make it ahead of time to serve chilled, have ready a large bowl (larger than the one in which you whip the sauce) partly filled with ice cubes.
• Whisk to blend the yolks, Marsala, and sugar in the stainless-steel bowl. Rest the bowl in the saucepan over hot water. Whisk constantly for 4 to 5 minutes or more to cook the sauce, until it has the consistency of lightly whipped cream. Clear the bottom of the bowl constantly with the whisk so that the eggs do not scramble, and adjust the heat as needed. Taste the sauce - the sabayon should never get so hot that you can't stick your very clean finger in it - and whisk drops of lemon juice or more sugar if you want. When thick, foamy, and tripled in volume, remove from heat. It can be served hot as is, tepid, or cool.
• Serving:
• Spoon a portion of strawberries - 1/2 cup or more - into each goblet or glass, and top with 1/3 to 1/2 cup of warm or cool sabayon. Or put the sauce in the glass first, then the strawberries.
• Variation: Strawberries Glazed with Sabayon
• Cool the sabayon to room temperature. Whip the cream and sugar until soft peaks form, and fold the cream into the sabayon with a rubber spatula.
• Turn on the broiler. Spread the strawberries in the baking dish in one layer (or in individual dishes). Spoon the sauce over the berries so they are completely covered and set the dish under the broiler, 5 to 6 inches from the heat. With the door open - so you can watch carefully - broil for a minute or two, turning the dish as needed to glaze evenly, until the top of the sabayon is nicely browned and slightly crusted. Serve right away.

EASY FRESH FRUIT SABAYON

Steps:

• In metal mixing bowl, whisk together all except the berries.
• Pour into double boiler or over simmering water in a saucepan if you don't have one.
• Whisk the sabayon (that's what it is now!) continuously until thick which takes about 5 minutes.
• This should look a lot like softly whipped cream and easily coat the back of a spoon.
• Divide berries among 4 serving dishes.
• Large wine glasses work well.
• Equally pour the sabayon over the berries.
• ENJOY!
