I made tiramisu few times a year and I know your recipe by heart , thank you kindly . And every time I have this video on - it’s my tradition , because it’s making ever so special and encouraging to hear your voice and feel your love and passion for cooking 💜💜💜

[@Nick-AngelpeodSeaxisc]

You and Antonio Carluccio make it in basically the same way and it is by FAR the best version, without a doubt.

[@orangeonly]

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]

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.

[@bernisevanheyst4236]

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!

[@oualid4441]

Thank you geranno for this beautiful and original Italian recipe i am sure that is delicious 😋

[@angelaberni8873]

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.

Let's not argue whether this an authentic or original recipe. I believe every mama Italia has her own version of tiramisu. Any tiramisu that true-heartedly tells you to "tiramisu" is a good one.

[@ThomCountryfan]

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.

Hi Gennaro, thanks for the great videos! I tried your recipe tonight but the cream is too runny. Any advice on that? I mixed it with by hand for 5-10 min, is that enough?

[@gmiha]

you have most likely not used double cream. try and use something like 'thickened cream or heavy cream'. that should fix it.

[@tcmac8927]

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.

i have never heard of putting double cream in tiramisu. can someone tell me how it works out? i mean is it better with it?

[@claudiodipietro]

No double cream in tiramisu, no double cream in carbonara

[@georgcorfu]

Obviously, besides this is an old recipe and I would follow it exactly as he says. Maybe the cream makes it fluffier.

[@TS-os4oq]

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]

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.

dear Genaro I adore you and your cooking!!! I made this tiramisu but the cream was not so steady... I put it in the fridge but it did not take the proper consistency... What did I do wrong??? Is it the mixing may be???

[@nikosgk9300]

maybe you can put 5 gr of gelatin sheets .. put them into cold water for 5 minutes, and after take 20 ml of double cream,get this mix to boil and put it in the main mix.. this will make the consistency of a steady mοusse

[@adampawliczek8932]

Forget the cream, add second egg instead.

[@dianaliztoledo1714]

Nela Nekla I did it in a stand mixer and it got the right consistency. I think that doing it by hand takes a long time that it is not properly shown in the video.

[@Pyatigorsk-fy2dt]

Dianaliz Toledo you right. At moment we see cream with little lumps, abra cadabra and Genaro put cream without any lumps on a biscuit

[@davemascetti9964]

Try using a stand mixer and mix at a pretty quick setting 3 or 4 for a kitchen aid mixer at about 2 min. You should notice it thicken up pretty quickly. I tried mixing with a wisk FOR EVER, and it never really worked.

[@yatsumoto]

Does it taste better with cream? I only use eggs with the mascarpone.

[@MegaAxelus]

+Andrei Pavel use only eggs

[@Rohaldos]

Add some double cream ( or panna ) it makes it more yammy

[@krasotador]

In Italy, Tiramisù is made without sour cream, you know this? 1:15

[@serene-being]

Can I replace Kahlua with Baileys?

[@georgcorfu]

Well Kalua has a coffee taste and blends with coffee in the dish. If you change the liqueur then you will have coffee mixed with Bailey's so it will taste something else and maybe not so balanced in your pallet.

[@Picasso.theDOG]

Ok Before anyone attacks me I do want to say that obviously I am no expert in Italian Gastronomy, but to me this really does look like the original Tiramisu... It Makes sense to not add soooo many layers, people didn't use to be so glutenous as we are now, adding and adding and adding more than we should, and also, (put it in the fridge?) If it's so old a recipe people cant recall were it came from then I am sure at the time it was invented fridges had not yet come into existance. I'm sorry but Gennaro makes lots of sense!

[@stefanocamoni229]

seems invented in the fifties in northern italy, so is recent recipe.

I have made filling ahead of time. My preference is to assemble a few hours before serving. I have not tried this version yet. but love the keep it simple approach.

[@guguigugu]

you can. it will keep in the fridge and firm up, making it even better.

[@Viewlence]

Any substitute for the double cream?

[@crisdrumming]

Grey Cross There’s no double cream in tiramisù. You have to beat the egg whites until stiff using a bit of lemon juice and sugar and mix them with the other cream you prepared with egg yolks, mascarpone cheese and sugar. Gennaro is a great showman who makes easiest version of Italian recipes for not Italian people.

[@Nick-AngelpeodSeaxisc]

@@crisdrumming There are multiple recipe's for tiramisu in Italy including AND excluding egg white, cream, vanilla, alcohol, variety of alcohol, lemon juice etc etc, the only constant is the biscuit, mascarpone and coffee, other than those three it is a personal preference, in Italy and elsewhere.

[@crisdrumming]

@@Nick-AngelpeodSeaxisc yes, like there are billion of people on the world and everyone can change a recipe and keep name it in the same way. Double cream is for the one who wants to save time and skip the hard process of make the cream only with eggs. Then you can like it and make it, but it’s not the traditional recipe. Double cream is for amateur.

[@Nick-AngelpeodSeaxisc]

@@crisdrumming there really is no traditional recipe as the dish is a modern invention and it's origins are disputed.

[@crisdrumming]

@@Nick-AngelpeodSeaxisc do you like semantic or just to waste your and my time? Let’s change “traditional” with “the one of the most common and oldest recipe”, when you make a tiramisù and use it double cream, you become automatically a cheater.

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.
