Remove from heat and add vanilla. Fold mascarpone into egg mixture in three or four parts, whisk until smooth and set aside.", "In a medium bowl, whip egg whites with 2 tsp sugar until soft peaks form, then fold into custard so that there are no visible streaks.", "Add your liquor of choice, vanilla, and salt to your espresso in a shallow bowl (for dipping) and stir to combine.", "In a 10x10"" deep pan alternate layers of lady fingers (quickly dipped in espresso mixture) and custard.
