Hi! Does anyone have (or can direct me to) a really good recipe on how to make tiramisu? ive read a few off google but dont really know which ones are the really good ones. Thanks!
I make it with tartaric acid (I find that lemon juice gives the wrong flavour).
Mascarpone
makes 2 cups
1 litre cream ¼ tsp tartaric acid
Heat cream over water to 82 – 90 C (180F) – this will take about an hour.
Line a large bowl with large piece of muslin, and stand in a lipped plate to contain drips.(Muslin will siphon off liquid)
Remove cream from heat and stir 30 sec.Remove bowl from water and stir 2 min.Add tartaric acid and stir well, pour into muslin-lined bowl.Chill 12 hours.
Make 4 x 24cm squares of muslin, place a quarter of cream on each one and fold into a parcel.Place on a lipped plate and refrigerate 12 hours.

This is the tiramisu that I make and like!It is a very expensive dessert though!
Tiramisu (in Italian means pick me up)
Ingredients 3 x eggs ½ cup caster sugar ¼ cup marsala wine 200 ml strong black coffee 400gr mascarpone cheese 2 tbsp tia maria or kahlua 1pkt 250gr sponge fingers (savioardi) Grated chocolate or cocoa powder
Method 1 Make the 200ml strong coffee and let cool. 2 Place egg yolks and sugar in a bowl and beat, then beat in marsala 3 Place over a double boiler and continue to beat for 10 mins till thick 4 Wisk in mascarpone cheese 5 In a separate bowl whisk egg whites until soft peaks then fold into the egg and mascarpone cheese mixture. 6 Mix in the liquor either tia maria or/and kahlua into the coffee. 7 Dip half the sponge fingers into the coffee mixture (needs to be done quite quickly so that not too much coffee sinks into the sponge finger) and layer them into a dish, cover with half the mascarpone cream mixture, repeat another layer of coffee soaked sponge fingers and cover with the remainder of the mascarpone cheese mixture. 8 Decorate the top with grated chocolate or cocoa powder and refrigerated for a few hours at least.
Enjoy!!
