Dessert of the Week: Fresh Peaches with Marsala Sabayon Add/Read Comments
Related Posts:
From Waitrose I picked up a pack of little French sponge cake fingers coated with crunchy sugar (Sugared Fingerellas) that make a marvellous contrast to the peaches and sabayon, especially when a couple are broken up and mixed in the dish.
The dish is a sliced peach, mixed with a couple of those Fingerellas, Marsala Sabayon poured over and topped with a dollop of thickly whipped double cream.
To make the Sabayon whisk 2 egg yolks with 60g caster sugar. Place over a saucepan of simmering water and gradually add just under 100ml Marsala until the mix is thickened. Do not boil. Allow to cool slightly and then construct the dish.

Now there's a coincidence. Yours looks pretty good, but I ate an exceptional sabayon on Monday. Warm maple syrup, chilled cream, cava sabayon and rock salt layered in a shot glass - the signature dish of Jordi Artal at Cinc Sentits. Marsala sounds just perfect for peach, though.

Love making sabayon and poached fruits for company. This sounds really decadent and classy at the same time! Well done!

Peaches! Sabayon! I'm there! Have never made sabayon (filled with terror at the thought) but love to eat it. And I am also on a fruit dessert kick at the moment :) Beautiful pics as always.
