Berries With Sabayon Recipes

BERRIES WITH WARM SHERRY SABAYON

Steps:

• Sprinkle 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 tablespoons sherry over berries; let stand, tossing gently once or twice, for about 30 minutes.
• Combine remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, 1/3 cup sherry, and egg yolks in a small bowl; whisk together. Set bowl over pan of simmering water, and continue whisking until tripled in volume, frothy, and warm to the touch, 6 to 8 minutes. Serve berries and sabayon together.

BERRIES WITH ORANGE SABAYON

Steps:

• For the Sabayon:
• Wash, zest and juice the orange - set the juice and zest aside.
• (With an electric beater or by hand) Whip the whipping cream and the icing sugar, until a firm peak forms.
• In a separate bowl (heat-proof bowl), whisk together the eggs, egg yolk, orange juice and zest. Slowly add in the sugar, whisking continuously until the mixture starts to foam.
• Place the bowl into a stove-top bain-marie (double boiler), and keep whisking until the mixture doubles (or even triples) in volume and reaches a creamy consistency (this takes 2 to 3 minutes). Make sure the consistency is creamy enough (it should coat the whisk) as this means the eggs are cooked properly.
• Remove from the heat and keep whisking to bring the sabayon down to room temperature (this takes 3 to 4 additional minutes). Once at room temperature, gently fold in the whipped cream with a rubber spatula.
• For serving:
• Wash and dry the berries. Chop them if needed (ie. strawberries). Scatter them evenly on the bottom of your serving vessels and gently pour the sabayon on top.
• Sprinkle with a light dusting of icing sugar, and place under the broiler for 30 seconds to 2 minutes (depending on the power of your broiler) until you get a light golden hue. If you have a torch blower, this will work great too.
• Serve immediately.

LEMON SABAYON WITH FRESH WILD BERRIES

Steps:

• Combine yolks and sugar in a mixing bowl and whisk until the color turns slightly pale. Set a pot of water over medium heat and place the mixing bowl over the pot of hot water to create a double-boiler. Continue to whisk over the medium-low heat until the mixture begins to thicken (the temperature should reach 160 degrees F) then add the lemon juice and zest. Continue to cook for 1 to 2 minutes until it thickens up again and then add the Marsala. Continue to cook while whisking until the mixture has thickened but is light and creamy, about 7 to 8 minutes, thinning with water as needed to achieve a soup-like texture. Serve in a bowl over fresh berries, dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh mint.

BERRY SABAYON GRATINEE

Steps:

• In a large glass bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar. Split the vanilla bean in half lengthwise and scrape the seeds with the back side of a pairing knife. Add vanilla bean seeds to the egg yolk mixture and whisk to combine. Add wine, a little at a time, and whisk to combine. Add a pinch of salt and whisk again.
• Set bowl over a pan of simmering water and whisk vigorously and constantly until the sauce is thick and fluffy, about 10 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Place 1/2 cup berries in the bottom of 6 shallow individual gratin dishes or ovenproof bowls. Spoon an even amount of the sabayon over each dish. Sprinkle the remaining berries evenly over the dishes. Place the dishes on a sheet pan and place on the top shelf of the oven under the broiler. Broil until the sabayon is golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve immediately.

BUTTERMILK PANNA COTTA WITH BERRIES AND VANILLA SABAYON

Steps:

• Make panna cotta
• In small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 3 tablespoons water. Let stand until gelatin softens, about 1 minute.
• In heavy, medium saucepan over moderate heat, whisk together cream and sugar. Scrape in seeds from vanilla bean; add bean. Heat, whisking occasionally, until sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in gelatin and buttermilk. Strain through fine-mesh sieve into medium, nonreactive bowl, discarding vanilla bean. Cover surface with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature 15 minutes.
• Divide mixture among ramekins and refrigerate until set, at least 8 hours or overnight.
• Make sabayon
• In medium bowl, using electric mixer or whisk, beat cream until stiff peaks form.
• In large nonreactive metal bowl, using electric mixer or whisk, whisk together egg yolks and sugar until light and pale yellow, about 1 minute. Set bowl over saucepan of barely simmering water and whisk in wine. Cook, whisking constantly and being careful not to let mixture steam, until mixture thickens and instant-read thermometer inserted into center registers 140°F, about 5 minutes.
• Remove bowl from saucepan and continue to whisk until mixture cools, 2 to 3 minutes. Fold in orange liqueur, then gently fold in whipped cream.
• To assemble and serve
• Using thin sharp knife, cut around inside edge of each ramekin to loosen. Dip bottom of 1 ramekin into bowl of very warm water 6 seconds. Place dessert plate upside-down atop ramekin and invert, gently lifting off ramekin to allow panna cotta to settle onto plate. Repeat to unmold remaining panna cottas.
• Arrange berries atop and around each panna cotta and spoon sabayon over berries. If desired, use kitchen blowtorch to lightly brown sabayon and serve immediately.

SABAYON WITH STRAWBERRIES

Steps:

• Preparing the strawberries:
• About an hour before serving the dessert, rinse the strawberries (stems on) and drain them on paper towels. Slice off the stems and halve or quarter the strawberries lengthwise, depending on size, into a bowl. Sprinkle over the sugar and the lemon juice; fold gently together to blend well. Taste a strawberry, add more sugar or lemon juice if needed, and set aside to macerate.
• Whipping the sabayon:
• If you want to serve the sabayon warm, make it at the last minute. If you want to glaze the sabayon under the broiler, or make it ahead of time to serve chilled, have ready a large bowl (larger than the one in which you whip the sauce) partly filled with ice cubes.
• Whisk to blend the yolks, Marsala, and sugar in the stainless-steel bowl. Rest the bowl in the saucepan over hot water. Whisk constantly for 4 to 5 minutes or more to cook the sauce, until it has the consistency of lightly whipped cream. Clear the bottom of the bowl constantly with the whisk so that the eggs do not scramble, and adjust the heat as needed. Taste the sauce - the sabayon should never get so hot that you can't stick your very clean finger in it - and whisk drops of lemon juice or more sugar if you want. When thick, foamy, and tripled in volume, remove from heat. It can be served hot as is, tepid, or cool.
• Serving:
• Spoon a portion of strawberries - 1/2 cup or more - into each goblet or glass, and top with 1/3 to 1/2 cup of warm or cool sabayon. Or put the sauce in the glass first, then the strawberries.
• Variation: Strawberries Glazed with Sabayon
• Cool the sabayon to room temperature. Whip the cream and sugar until soft peaks form, and fold the cream into the sabayon with a rubber spatula.
• Turn on the broiler. Spread the strawberries in the baking dish in one layer (or in individual dishes). Spoon the sauce over the berries so they are completely covered and set the dish under the broiler, 5 to 6 inches from the heat. With the door open - so you can watch carefully - broil for a minute or two, turning the dish as needed to glaze evenly, until the top of the sabayon is nicely browned and slightly crusted. Serve right away.
