About Zabaione

Zabaione, also known as zabaglione, is a traditional Italian dessert made from egg yolks, sugar, and sweet wine—typically Marsala. Light and creamy, this custard-like treat is prepared by whisking the ingredients together over gentle heat until they achieve a voluminous, silky texture. While often served warm, it can be chilled or paired with fruits and pastries. Its origins trace back to the 16th century, celebrated in Italian cuisine for its simple yet luxurious taste. Nutritionally, Zabaione is high in protein due to the egg yolks, which also provide vitamins like B12 and D. However, its sugar content can make it calorie-dense, and the inclusion of Marsala wine adds alcohol, making moderation key if consumed regularly. While not a health food, its minimal ingredient list offers an indulgent treat without additives found in more processed desserts.
