If we were to ask for the first Italian dessert that comes to your mind, you would probably come up with typical options such as tiramisu, pantettone, panna cotta or a classic gelato. But today we bring you another traditional Italian sweet that you can prepare at home with only three ingredients. It is the sabayon (or also called zabaione or zabaglione). It is a sweet and frothy cream -similar to custard- that is usually served as an accompaniment to other desserts, but you can also taste it independently. It even has a savory version. We tell you how to prepare this recipe based on egg yolks, sugar and marsala wine (from Sicily) or vino santo (typical of Tuscany).
