  • 3.17 oz egg yolks (5 eggs)
  • 0.3 cup wine (Brachetto d'Acqui)
  • 2.65 oz sugar
  • to taste berries

How to Make Panettone with Brachetto D’Acqui Zabaglione

  • To prepare the zabaglione, first pour the Brachetto d’Acqui into a saucepan and add half of the sugar, heating it just enough to dissolve.

    Separately, place the egg yolks in a bowl and, while continuously whisking, add the remaining sugar.

    Gradually pour the wine with the dissolved sugar into the mixture while cooking in a bain-marie, continuing to stir quickly with the whisk for about 6-7 minutes, until it has increased in volume and reaches a temperature of 176°F.

    Cool the cream by placing the bowl over ice, stirring it continuously, so it cools quickly.

  • Assembling the Dessert

    Take the panettone and cut it into slices about 3/4 inch thick, then using a pastry cutter the size of the glass you will use, make rounds. At this point, place the rounds in the base of the glasses, add the cream, and make another layer. Finally, decorate with toasted strips of panettone and berries.
