Whisk the egg whites, salt and sugar in the double boiler over medium-low heat (make sure the bowl is not touching the water) Cook, whisking constantly until the sugar has dissolved and mixture is warm to the touch (about 2 – 4 minutes)
Remove the bowl from the double boiler. Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat egg mixture until it has tripled in volume, glossy, and completely cool, about 10 minutes.

Transfer half of the yogurt mixture to prepared pan; smooth surface. Swirl half of the peach mixture into a yogurt layer with a spoon, then repeat with remaining yogurt and peach mixtures. Fold plastic wrap overhang over top to seal and freeze until firm, at least 8 hours.
Unwrap semifreddo and, using plastic overhang, gently lift from pan. Invert semifreddo onto a cutting board, remove plastic wrap, and let sit at least 10 minutes to soften. Slice into 6 even slices, about 1 1⁄2″ thick; transfer to plates and serve.
