The recipe for the best Tiramisu
Tiramisu: “pull me up.
This is the classic dessert that everyone orders in restaurants as soon as they arrive in Italy. Made with mascarpone, chocolate powder, coffee and sponge biscuits, it’s as easy to make as it is to interpret. There are red fruit Tiramisus, coffee-free Tiramisus, egg-free Tiramisus and Nutella Tiramisus. Well, none of them are inedible, but why deprive yourself of the original? It’s almost impossible to make a bad Tiramisu, so it’s best to stick to the ancestral basics of this dessert to achieve perfection.
Our recipe secrets for the famous italian dessert
The real recipe for TIRAMISU:
Serves 6
– 400g Mascarpone
– 200g Savoiardi biscuits
– 150g icing sugar
– 200g dark chocolate
– 4 egg yolks
– 2 egg whites
– 3 cups of long coffee
– Bitter cocoa
– Marsala (sweet wine, preferably Florio brand)
Tiramisu in 6 steps:
1. Chop the chocolate into large pieces (slightly larger than nuggets). Beat the egg whites until stiff with an electric mixer.
2. In a large bowl, combine the egg yolks and icing sugar using a wooden spoon (do not use an electric mixer). Beat the mixture until white and fluffy. Gently fold in the mascarpone and then the egg whites.
3. If you wish, you can add a teaspoon of Marsala to the mixture. Make a fairly long cup of coffee (decaffeinated, if you have a strong coffee, add more water), put it in a soup plate and add 2 tablespoons of Marsala and a teaspoon of normal sugar.
4. Quickly dip the Savoiardi biscuits in the coffee, but only on one side, so that they are not too wet. Place them on the bottom of a high-sided rectangular dish and top with a layer of mascarpone cream mixture. Sprinkle generously with chocolate chips.
5. Make several identical layers until you have used up all the ingredients. The last layer should be made with cream.
6. Place in the fridge for at least 2 hours (ideally 24). Just before serving, sprinkle cocoa sifted through a fine sieve and enjoy… Time to enjoy!
