"Syllabub has been eaten in one form or another since dairying was first practiced in Ireland, but it became especially popular during the 18th century. It was originally made by milking a cow directly into a bowl containing a little old milk which caused the substance to froth. That rustic version was usually served as a drink rather than as a dessert, but the more refined syllabub was made with a combination of wine, lemon juice, and cream, sometimes frothed with egg white. This recipe uses a bit of a cheat, using ready-made lemon curd. This is a fancy dessert, so dust off the Irish crystal for an elegant serving touch!"
