Ingredients
Figs with Zabaglione
- Ingredients
- 2 Tbsps slivered almonds (20 grams)
- 4 ripe blue Figs
- 4 ripe green Figs
- 2 eggs
- 6 Tbsps dry white wine
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp sugar (10 grams)
Toast the almond slices in a dry pan till golden brown and set aside.
Rinse and pat dry the figs. Cut the blue figs into quarters lengthwise and the green figs into slices. Arrange the figs on 4 dessert plates.
For the zabaglione, break the eggs while separating the yolk and white. In a metal bowl, add the yolks with dry white wine, lemon juice and sugar and mix until fluffy.
Now place the bowl over a hot water bath for 5-10 minutes while churning with a hand mixer.
Pour the prepared zabaglione over the figs and sprinkle the toasted almonds slices. Serve.

Healthy, because
Figs were already popular in ancient times, and there is a reason for this: when eaten fresh, one fruit (60 g) provides just under 40 kcal. The oldest fruit in the world also contains potassium, calcium, magnesium and iron as well as a good portion of vitamins, digestive enzymes and satiating fibres.
Even smarter
In this way you prevent unattractive lumps: The foam sauce must not boil because the yolk will clot.
