Zabaglione Recipes

Zuccotto
Pecorino Romano
Pecorino, from pecora or sheep, is
made from ewe's milk.  Sharp and salty,
pecorino romano is primarily eaten as a
grating cheese on pasta and soup, and
is also delicious on salads. Dishes from
southern Italy and those made with
olive oil, garlic, anad vegetables go
best with pecorino romano, while butter
and cream sauces from Northern Italy
are complemented by Parmigiano-
Reggiano.  Sometimes the two grating
cheeses are combined for a balance of
sweetness, sharpness, and pure cheese
flavor.
Prosciutto
Prosciutto is ham that has been air
dried and cured with salt and spices.  
It is sometimes called prosciutto
crudo, or raw ham, to distinguish it
from prosciutto cotto, which is cooked,
usually boiled, ham.  Proscuitto is
made in many different regions of
Italy, bu the most famous version
comes from near the town of Parma in
Emilia-Romagna.  The pigs raised for
Prosciutto di Parma are fed on the
whey left over from the making of
Parmigiano-Reggiano.  Sweet and
tender, this prized ham is typically
served thinly sliced as an appetizer
with crusty bread, ripe melon or figs,
or with soft, fresh mozzarella.
Whisk together 1/4 cup buttermilk,
1/4 cup plain yogurt or mayonnaise,  
2 teaspoons lemon juice,
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce,
a pinch of garlic powder, and a few
drops of hot sauce.  Stir in 1/4 cup
crumbled blue cheese and season with
salt and pepper. If the dressing is too
thick add a little more buttermilk to thin.
Blue Cheese-Buttermilk
Salad Dressing
Caramelizing
Caramelization is the process of sugar
turning brown through heat being
applied. Sugar can be caramelized
but so can fruits and vegetables with a
high concentration of carbohydrates
(sugar).  For example, as squash,
onions, apples roast in the oven, the
sugars naturally present in them slowly
develop a golden brown color and a
sweet, more complex, flavor through
long cooking.  Adding a sprinkling of
sugar or a brushing of honey
encourages the caramelizing process.
