Ingredients
-
8 egg yolks
4 egg whites, divided (save remaining 4 egg whites for another use)
3/4 cup sugar (plus 2 additional tbsp. sugar, total 175 grams)
1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup heavy cream
Preparation
-
Melt butter, then set aside to cool to room temperature.
Cream egg yolks and sugar until they become light, creamy, and fluffy. While mixing, drizzle cooled butter into sugar-egg yolk mixture. Fold salt into sugar-egg yolk mixture.
Whisk heavy cream to medium-to-stiff peaks and fold into sugar-egg yolk mixture.
Whisk egg whites to peaks and fold into semifreddo mixture.
Pour into a container, cover tightly, and freeze for several hours or overnight to set. This semifreddo will keep for two to three days tightly sealed in the freezer -- after this it will start to break down.
