Showcase juicy, ripe berries with rich zabaglione, laced with sweet wine.

How to Make It

1

In a large bowl, gently combine berries with 1 1⁄2 tbsp. sugar. Let stand until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes.

2

Spoon half of the strawberries into 8 serving bowls or stemmed glasses and set aside. With a mixer, beat cream in a medium bowl until thick; chill.

3

Fill a large pot with 1 in. water and bring to a gentle simmer. In a large copper or stainless steel bowl, whisk together egg yolks, Vin Santo, Prosecco, and 1⁄2 cup sugar. Set bowl over (but not touching) simmering water and vigorously whisk until mixture is thick, frothy, and forms a ribbon when whisk is lifted, about 8 to 12 minutes.

4

Remove bowl from heat and whisk until the mixture is just lukewarm, 5 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, fold in whipped cream. Spoon zabaglione over strawberries in serving bowls and top with reserved berries.
