Thank you for sharing this recipe. Looks good. Does it have to be key lime or will regular lime work. I saw on one of your posts that dayap is key lime. Thanks.

Thanks Natie…. you can tell I’m not into stocks & hedge funds – although I am familiar with Andrew Carnegie (hmmm didn’t realize the connection until Footloose mentioned it).

ConnieC, distress indeed…. My hubby asked why I sounded so distressed when I kept asking him to check (from his work internet account) if he could access MM’s site..

Yeah…Footloose…I much prefer the frothy sabayon, too. I make a very easy dessert using it without the use of MM’s kili-kili power…not good for rotator cuff injury/surgery! ….poured over summer berries in a shallow dessert bowl and then gratineed!…MMMMMM esp. served warm and eaten with lengua de gato!

ARRGH, my BAD! I left out the flour (4 cups) from the dough. Apologies to anyone who tried the recipe with that important ingredient left out. Recipe has been adjusted. Footloose, I usually take one of several stainless bowls and just rest it over a pot of boiling water… works every time… satomi, yes, almonds would probably work as well… sister, thanks, yup, forgot the flour, millet, no weights necessary, the dough is quite heavy… betchay almonds or walnuts probably better than cashews…

This zabaglione filling would be an airier improvement over the sometimes pasty or over rich citrus curd used as filling for tart though admittedly requiring a stronger arm. The ones served in Italian restaurants are crustless and a lot runnier. I love them not for the froth and bubble but for the sweet wine they fortify it with, Marsala, Moscato d’Asti and sometimes even Malmsey from Santorini, the sacramental wine of the Greek Orthrodox church. Reminds me of eggnog.

A set of dedicated saucepans marketed as double boilers are impractical to use for this kind of preparation, specially if the bottom of the top vessel has hard-to-reach corners. I have been using a makeshift one out of a hemispherical bowl fitted over a smaller pan of water. Steady and safe but above all, the open bowl is quite accessible to a balloon whip and easy to scrape clean with a silicon spatula.

Swabbing can mean applying or removing material from a surface as to swab a specimen for study as in throat swab or other body part or surface swab….from the use of a piece of absorbent material at the tip of a small wood or metal rod… a cotton swab.

But MM’s blog got swaabbed out of its site causing distress among some regulars.

Schwab was one of Andrew Carnegie’s minions. Swab has something to do with an OB-Gyne screening test, I think.

yeah, be careful of those hackers, MM—we’ll be having real fierce withdrawal syndrome if our MM-fix is not met..
