Take that, bakery competition!

Here in Fargo there's one bakery that I consider my competition. Fortunately my stuff tastes much, much, much better than hers. It's not that hers is bad; it tastes pretty good. But mine is different and, in my opinion, better.

Case in point: at the street festival a couple weeks ago, she had a booth selling strawberry parfaits. We got one and were disappointed when it was just whole strawberries with vanilla ice cream on top. C'mon, anyone can make that. James remarked that it would've been a lot better with custard on top.

So, here's my recipe: strawberries with zabaione on top.

Ingredients
5 egg yolks
12 tbsp sugar
8 tbsp Marsala
drop of vanilla

1. Whisk the yolks and sugar together.
2. Stir in the other two ingredients.
3. In a double-boiler over low heat, stir mixture until it's thick.
4. Let cool, then pour over sliced strawberries.

If I had enough eggs on hand, I would have made an angel food cake and plopped it all together. Yum!
