  • In this video, chef Gennaro Contaldo shows us how to make tiramisu, a simple and delicious Italian pudding using coffee, mascarpone and sponge fingers.
    Although a regular sight on menus across Europe and beyond, tiramisu is actually a relatively recent invention and not a traditional Italian pudding as you might expect. Nonetheless, we've taken it into our hearts thanks to its delicious combination of heady flavours.
    Ingredients
    4 x servings
    250ml mascarpone
    250ml double cream
    1 x egg yolk
    2 x tbsp sugar
    Seeds of ½ vanilla pod
    180ml espresso coffee
    2 x tbsp coffee liqueur (Kahlua)
    12 x Savoiardi biscuits
    Cocoa powder for dusting
    25cm in diameter round shallow dish or any shape you prefer
    Method
    In a bowl or container, combine coffee and coffee liqueur. Set aside.
    In a separate bowl, whisk mascarpone, cream, egg yolk, sugar and vanilla seeds together until all well mixed. Set aside.
    Dip the biscuits in the coffee mix and line the dish, pour over the creamy mixture and spread evenly all over.
    Dust with cocoa powder. Can be eaten immediately or stored in the fridge until required.

    As with everything,we all do things different ways. Tiramisu is no exception. I whisk 6 egg yolks with 5 tablespoons of sugar,I then add the mascarpone and sometimes add whisked egg whites. If you add egg whites it does need to be in the fridge overnight. Don't soak the sponge fingers too much. I will try his version though...nothing ventured nothing gained. Gennaro, ognuno di noi abbiamo una versione diversa,senza ombra di dubbio intendo provare la sua versione. Grazie mille.

    This recipe is so interesting! It's the only one where egg yolks, whipped cream, mascarpone, sugar, and vanilla seeds are placed immediately together in one bowl, and whisked together. I've tried it and it reduces the amount of time needed to reach stiff peaks drastically.
    Most other recipes have us whisk the whipping cream separately, before folding them into the the other bowl where we whisked the mascarpone, sugar, egg yolks, and vanilla seeds mixture. Is there a reason why so many recipes are of this latter variation?
    I've tried both, and in fact found the simpler and more efficient method used in this video to be tastier. Thoughts, anyone?

    • @Schlook
      @Schlook Рік тому +7

      Three years late, but whatever haha. The thing is, alot of italian cuisine is simple cooking. Not all of these technical moments like you have say in the french or japanese cuisine. It's simple technique, few, BUT, very GOOD ingredients and that's how you get there.
      For me, I've tried both ways - the more relaxed, use feeling and don't worry about it, and the more technical way with separating egg yolks and whites and whisking separately and folding in etc. The difference in time and effort spent is not decisive enough imo. The end result will still be close.
      There is something hearty about just tossing together a quick tiramisu. I like to do it small glasses or cups as well so each family member or guest have their own serving. It's great.

  • @TS-os4oq
    @TS-os4oq 4 роки тому +10

    The real tiramisù uses Marsala which is lighter than most spirits. First you whisk the yolks and sugar together as it creates a nice light texture, then you add mascarpone and then you fold the foamy egg whites in, no cream, no vanilla, no kalua. This version is nice for sure, who doesn’t like cream and the rest of the ingredients? but it’s not like we make it in Italy

    • @Nick-AngelpeodSeaxisc
      @Nick-AngelpeodSeaxisc Рік тому +2

      There is no "real" tiramisu and the alcohol is just an option as is the variety used, same with the vanilla.
      Having eaten tiramisu in Italy and number of decent Italian restaurants in my opinion this one is the best version and as is so often the case with the best versions, the simplest.

    Finally! The secret to the best Tiramisu, it's Kahlua. I've tasted this over ten years ago in a great little restaurant in Rome and long have I tried to figure out how it was made, but I never quite got the right taste. They made it fresh and didn't cool it, so it was still warm on the inside and nice and cold on the outside, best thing I've ever eaten. And now I can finally make it myself!

    Well, the original seems to be without any kind of liqueur but it's gotten usual to add some kind of liqueur. Many times they add Amaretto but the more authentic liquid is Marsala, it's not a liqueur but a dessert wine. I use to put some Marsala into the cream and some coffee liqueur into the coffee for the ladyfingers. Also in the original recipe, as I've read, they didn't use ladyfingers but some kind of italian cookie.

    @alexanderguesthistorical7842 2 роки тому +1

    I believe this has the same origins as the British Trifle. In medieval times, the monasteries used to give biscuits covered in toppings (wine etc I think) to pilgrims and travellers. And of course the biscuits are still there in the recipe, soaked in liquid (coffee in this case) in this dish and in trifle. Personally I don't like the biscuits - too grainy for me.

    • @tcmac8927
      @tcmac8927 6 років тому +1

      I just made this with a large group and we struggled with the heavy cream causing it to be watery. Whipped up more heavy cream to near butter and it thickened a bit. It tasted wonderful in the end, but truly disappointed that it was more difficult than it needed to be. Perhaps next time I will either omit the cream or whip it thick beforehand.
