Coffee Gelati & Licorice Zabaione

A three star dessert from London's Anima. I think the best dessert I've had in a few months. All of the key flavors (coffee, star anise and licorice) are bold in their own right, but mesh perfectly together in this recipe.

espresso
star anise
milk
cream
eggs
zabaione
licorice liquor (Calabria)
peanut brittle
  1. make peanut brittle ahead of time
  2. make ice cream using the espresso and star anise
  3. make zabaione using liquor
  4. put scoop of ice cream in a martini glass
  5. put a couple of chips of peanut brittle alongside the ice cream
  6. pour over zabaione while still warm (not hot as it will melt the ice cream too quickly)
