Steps

  1. 1

    Bring a small saucepan of water to a gentle simmer to make a bain-marie.

  2. 2

    In a heatproof bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the sugar until pale, then add the Marsala and vanilla.

  3. 3

    Set the bowl over the bain-marie without letting the bottom touch the water. Whisk constantly for 8 to 10 minutes, until the mixture is airy, thick, and mousse-like.

  4. 4

    Spoon into serving glasses right away and serve with fresh strawberries.
