Put into a saucepan the four yolks and the sugar; place the saucepan on a hot stove and beat the yolks and sugar smartly with a wire whisk for 2 minutes. Pour in the Marsala, or, failing this, some Madeira slowly, stirring all the time; then take the pan from the fire and strain the sauce through a fine sieve over the pudding with which it is to be served. It is also served with vanilla ice cream. This sauce must not boil.
