Steps:
- Prepare a 9"-5" loaf pan by placing parchment paper in the bottom of the pan and a strip of parchment paper around the edges of the pan. Set aside
- Add the egg yolks, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest and salt to a small saucepan. Heat over medium low heat, whisking constantly until the mix begins to thicken. If you have a candy thermometer, place it in the mix as it cooks and stop when it reached 170 degrees F (this should take about 4 minutes).
- Remove the curd from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Strain through a fine mesh sieve and then add the curd to the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat the curd until cooled and very fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Fold the cooled curd into the whipped cream gently.
- Pour the lemon cream into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
- Sprinkle the top with the sliced almonds, pressing them gently onto the surface (this will be the semifreddo "crust").
- Wrap the loaf pan completely with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 8 hours, overnight if possible.
- Once frozen, remove from the freezer, take out the plastic wrap and run a sharp knife around the edge of the loaf pan between the parchment and the pan. Flip the dessert onto a serving tray or plate.
- Slice and serve while cold!

VANILLA SEMIFREDDO WITH RASPBERRY SAUCE
Steps:
- Lightly oil an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-by-2-inch loaf pan and line it as neatly as possible with plastic wrap, allowing enough to drape over the sides to later cover the top. (I lay two pieces of plastic wrap across the pan, overlapping in the middle.) Place the pan in the freezer.
- Put the egg yolks (reserve 1/3 cup of the egg whites and discard or save the rest for another use), 1/4 cup of the sugar and the vanilla seeds in a medium heatproof bowl and beat with a handheld mixer fitted with the beater attachment for 2 minutes, until light yellow and thickened. Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water and beat the mixture continually for 3 minutes, until doubled in volume and warm to the touch. Off the heat, beat the mixture for 1 minute.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the reserved egg whites, the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar and the cream of tartar and beat on high speed until the whites form firm but not dry peaks. Fold the egg whites into the egg mixture with a rubber spatula.
- Without washing the mixer or whisk, pour the heavy cream, vanilla liqueur (if using) and vanilla into the bowl and beat on high speed until it forms soft peaks. Fold the whipped cream carefully but thoroughly into the egg mixture. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan, cover with plastic wrap, and freeze for at least 4 hours.
- Place the raspberries, sugar and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for 4 minutes.
- Pour the mixture and the preserves into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until smooth. Stir in the framboise and chill.
- To unmold, dip the pan in a bowl of hot tap water for 8 to 10 seconds and turn the semifreddo upside down onto a rectangular serving plate. Peel off the plastic wrap. (You can cover and refreeze the semifreddo for a few hours on the serving plate.) Pour several tablespoons of raspberry sauce on each dessert plate, cut 1-inch-thick slices of the semifreddo and place them in the center of the sauce. Sprinkle each serving with blueberries and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Spray a 9 by 5 by 3-inch metal loaf pan with nonstick spray. Line the pan with plastic wrap, allowing the excess to hang over the ends and sides.
- Combine the crushed amaretti cookies and the melted butter. Put in the lined pan and press down to firm and form a crust.
- Whisk 1/2 cup of the sugar, the egg yolks, lemon juice, lime juice, limoncello, and salt in a large metal bowl to blend. Set the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (do not allow the bottom of the bowl to touch the water). Whisk the egg mixture until it is thick and creamy, and a thermometer inserted into the mixture registers 160 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Set the bowl of custard into another bowl of ice water to cool completely. Stir in the zest.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the cream and remaining 1/4 cup sugar in another large bowl until firm peaks form. Using a large rubber spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the custard. Spoon the mixture onto the prepared crust. Fold the overhanging plastic wrap over the custard and freeze until frozen, at least 8 hours or up to 3 days.
- Unfold the plastic wrap. Invert the semifreddo onto a platter and peel off the plastic wrap. Cut the semifreddo into 1-inch slices and sprinkle with crushed amaretti cookies and serve.

Steps:
- Line 1 quart (9x4 inch) loaf pan with plastic wrap and place it in your freezer to chill while you make the egg-and-cream mixture.
- In a bowl, beat the cream with an electric mixer on high until doubled in volume and holds soft peaks when the beaters are turned off and lifted up.
- Set aside at room temperature, away from the stove's heat.
- Bring about 3 inches water to a boil in a large saucepan set over high heat; decrease heat so the water simmers gently.
- Clean and dry the beaters for your mixer; place the egg yolks and ¼ cup of sugar in a bowl that will fit snugly over the pan with the simmering water.
- Beat away from the heat at medium speed until thick and pale yellow; about 1 minute.
- Set the bowl over the saucepan and continue beating until the mixture will make little mounds when the beaters are turned off, lifted up, and any mixture on them is allowed to dribble back into the pan, about 2 more minutes.
- Beat in the vanilla, then remove bowl from the saucepan (do not turn off the heat under the pan) and set aside at room temperature for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, clean and dry the beaters again; place the egg whites, salt, and the remaining ½ cup sugar in another bowl and fit it snugly over the saucepan with the simmering water.
- Beat at medium speed for 1 minute, until frothy.
- Add in the cream of tartar and continue beating at medium speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula, until smooth, shiny, and satiny, about 3 minutes.
- Remove the bowl from the saucepan and continue beating off the heat until room temperature, about 1 more minute.
- Fold about half of the egg white mixture into the egg yolk mixture with a rubber spatula until smooth, then fold in the remaining egg white mixture.
- Fold in the whipped cream gently, just to incorporate it without losing much of the volume.
- Take the prepared loaf pan out of the freezer and pour this mixture into it.
- Spread the mixture gently to the corners with a rubber spatula.
- Return to you freezer and chill until cold and thick, about 6-8 hours.
- Once the semifreddo is set, cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap to ward off freezer odors, can be stored this way for up to 2 weeks.
- To serve, turn the loaf pan upside down on a serving platter; hold the plastic wrap at the sides and lift off the pan, wiggling it from side to side.
- Pull the plastic off the semifreddo and cut into slices about 1 inch thick.
