Ingredients

• 4 pieces Egg yolks
• 50 grams Granulated sugar
• 60 ml Dark rum
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 50 ml Heavy cream (optional, for garnish)
• 200 grams Fresh fruits (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

1. Prepare a double boiler by bringing about 2 inches of water to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Ensure that the bottom of your heatproof mixing bowl does not touch the water.

Step 2

2. In the heatproof bowl, combine the egg yolks and granulated sugar. Use a whisk to mix until the mixture becomes smooth and pale.

Step 3

3. Place the bowl over the simmering water, ensuring it is stable. Begin whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.

Step 4

4. Gradually pour in the dark rum while continuing to whisk. This process will incorporate the rum into the yolk mixture and begin to thicken the sauce.

Step 5

5. Whisk vigorously for 7-10 minutes, or until the mixture has tripled in volume, becomes thick, and develops a light, fluffy texture.

Step 6

6. Remove the bowl from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Continue to whisk for 1-2 minutes off the heat to ensure a smooth and glossy consistency.

Step 7

7. If desired, whip the heavy cream into soft peaks and gently fold it into the sabayon for a richer texture.

Step 8

8. Serve the Rum Sabayon Sauce immediately while warm, paired with fresh fruits, over a slice of cake, or as a drizzle for pies.
