Author Notes: Zabaglione is a classic Italian dessert - a thin but rich, eggy custard flavored with sweet wine. This low carb version came from our friend Rani. Rani hosts a weekly Low Carb chat on AOL called The Low-Carb Cook's Nook. If you're an AOL member, be sure to check it out.

Ingredients: 6 eggs, separated
3 tablespoons rum or rum extract
1/2 teaspon liquid sugar substitute (such as Sweet n Low(r) or sucaryl)
Instructions: Beat egg yolks lightly with an electric mixer. Add rum or rum extract and sweetener. Place in a double boiler over hot (not boiling) water and cook, beating constantly, until mixture is thick. Beat egg whites until stiff, but not dry. Fold egg yolk/rum mixture slowly into egg whites. Pile into individual parfait glasses, sherbert glasses, or glass dessert bowls. Serve warm or chilled with grated nutmeg (optional) on top.

Variation: Using above recipe, add 1 tablespoon orange extract with the rum. Top each serving with a fan-sliced strawberry.

Approximately 1 gm of carb each serving.
