Strawberries With Balsamic Sabayon Recipe #375033
Since barely adorned strawberries are the star in this recipe, please choose plump, red berries. The chilled sabayon sauce is enhanced with balsamic vinegar and the taste will be very complex and delicious with a really good quality aged balsamic, however, it is still wonderful made with a more ordinary balsamic. Prep time does not include chilling time.
30 min | 30 min prep
SERVES 8
- 6 tablespoons sugar
- 4 egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons aged balsamic vinegar
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream, whipped to medium stiff peaks and refrigerated
- 1 pint strawberry, rinsed and hulled
- crisp cookie, for garnish
- MAKE THE SABAYON: Set aside a big bowl of ice. In a small stainless-steel bowl, whisk the sugar into the egg yolks until thoroughly combined and lightened in color. Set the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and continue whisking until mixture thickens. The mixture is cooked when it is light in color and trails off the whisk in ribbons. Do NOT overcook it. Remove the bowl from the heat and whisk in the balsamic vinegar. Set the bowl over the bowl of ice and continue whisking the sabayon until it is completely cooled, 5 to 10 minutes. The sabayon will thicken as it cools. Very gently fold in the whipped cream and refrigerate the lightened sabayon for at least 2 hours before serving. (You could make it the night before, but it is best served the same day it's made.).
- Serve the sabayon draped over whole or sliced strawberries in a pretty glass dish with a garnish of crisp cookies, whole or crumbled, if you like.
