Steps:

• In a bowl, lightly crush the berries with 25g of the sugar. Add a spoonful to the bottom of 6 small glasses, then set the rest of the berry mixture aside.
• Bring some water to a gentle simmer in a medium-size saucepan and tip the egg yolks into a large heatproof bowl. Halve and scrape the seeds from the vanilla pod into the egg yolks and add the remaining sugar. Using an electric whisk, beat until light and airy. Splash in the Marsala, place the bowl over the pan of simmering water, then whisk your heart out for 10-12 mins until the egg yolks are thick and foamy and the whisk leaves a defined trail. Drain off some of the juice, then ripple the remaining berries through the mousse and spoon into the glasses.

ZABAGLIONE

Steps:

• Bring 1-inch of water to a boil in a 4-quart saucepan set over high heat.
• Add the egg yolks and sugar to a large glass bowl. Using an electric hand mixer on the highest speed, beat the eggs and sugar until the mixture is thick, pale yellow, and the sugar is completely dissolved, 4 to 5 minutes. Decrease the mixer speed to low and add the Marsala and salt.
• Decrease the heat to maintain a simmer and put the bowl atop the saucepan with the boiling water, making sure the bottom of the bowl is not touching the water. Beat the mixture on medium speed, until it is thick, frothy, holds a ribbon, and the temperature reaches 145 to 150 degrees F, on an instant-read thermometer.
• Spoon the warm mixture into custard cups or serving glasses and serve immediately or allow to cool slightly. Serve with fresh berries, if desired.

ZABAGLIONE WITH BERRIES

Set the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water) and whisk vigorously over medium to medium-high heat until thick and creamy, 8 to 10 minutes. Immediately pour over the berries and serve with biscotti.

BLACKBERRY ZABAGLIONE

Steps:

• Spoon 1 1/2 cup of the blackberries into six (6 ounce size) wine glasses. They should each be half full. Push the remaining blackberries through a sieve to yield 8 tablespoons of puree. In a saucepan, bring the white wine to a boil. Add the maple syrup, almond extract and vanilla. Stir in the cornstarch paste, bring to a boil and stir. In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Set a round copper bowl in the saucepan, giving a double-boiler effect and reduce the heat to a simmer. Now combine the egg substitute and castor sugar in the bowl and beat until the consistency is thick and creamy, like a frothy pudding (A copper bowl is essential: the chemical action is the secret to getting the custard consistency!). Slowly whisk the syrup mixture into the sweetened egg substitute. Add 6 tablespoons of the blackberry puree and beat well over heat to combine. Pour the custard over the blackberries in the wine glasses. Top with the remaining blackberry puree and serve hot.
