How to Make Tiramisu | Gennaro Contaldo | Italian Special

One for the weekend friends! We couldn't take Gennaro all the way to Italy without indulging in this classic. This is also one of the recipes we had as a popular request for Gennaro to make from you guys! So here it is, super simple, super tasty, super Italian.
Gennaro in Italy
Over the coming months we will posting a series of Gennaro’s recipes from Italy, some of which you, the audience, have specifically asked for and others are Gennaro doing what the Italians do best - sourcing good ingredients and making simple, bold dishes with little effort and time involved.
Rather than cut these videos right down, we have left them a little longer and kept them relaxed. We think watching Gennaro in Italy is a glorious thing, and Gennaro does such a great job at being both inspiring and entertaining. So sit back and enjoy these as they roll out - we would love to know what you think.

People getting offended every time someone doesn't make "authentic" tiramisu. Then Italian chef comes and basically tells you several substitutes for the original ingredients :D It's not possible to dislike Gennaro.

[@しゅーおーくらけらん]

These days people will call anything a tiramisu, but if you've eaten the proper thing and seek out that authentic flavour then substitutes really don't cut it. Substitutions are fine if you purposely want a different flavour, but the basic tiramisu ingredients aren't that hard to come by or make from scratch yourself so I think it's lazy to use substitutes if you want your tiramisu to impress.

[@canesecco4158]

this is simply an american ricetta, the cream is far away from the original one. no way to argue that.

[@paulineinguanez4798]

Mααrʈεn M q

[@TheSwedishRider]

@Sakina Fletcher the original does not have cream, only Mascarpone. Restaurants often mix cream in varying amounts into it to cut costs. Once you made it with Mascarpone only, you will easily spot the difference and you will most likely enjoy stretched Tiramisu much less.

[@awolf913]

Here original recipee from my Italian grandmother let me know if you made it how it taste: 4 eggs, 100 grams white sugar, 500 gram mascarpone, 300 gram cookie ( savoiardi ), bitter cold coffee (espresso) as concentrated as possible, cacao powder for topping. ( if you want and like liquor you can also add some liquor to your coffee mixture ) 1. Take your 4 eggs and seperate the yolks from the white. 2. Start mixing the yolks so they become one mixture and once all yolks are a smooth mixture add the 100 grams of sugar and also mix this until its a smooth mixture. 3. When its a smooth mixture add 500 grams of mascarpone until its a smooth mixture. 4. Now start mixing your egg white so it gets a thick smooth mixture and add it to your yolk/mascarpone mix. 5. Now you can start with layering your tiramisu place a layer of the mixture on the bottom. 6. Put your savoiardi cookies in the coffee mixture ( add a little liquor if you like ) and place them on your first layer of the mixture and keep building your tiramisu. 7. Top it off with some cacao powder. Tip for liquor: Italians mostly put Amaretto or Strega liquor in it.

[@travelsizedhispasian]

hey bro, I know it's 2 years but if you're still around and reading this, I made tiramisu yesterday with this recipe. It was my brother's birthday today, May 4th (AKA Star Wars day). Tiramisu is his favourite dessert of all time, he's tried all sorts of tiramisu before-you can consider him as a tiramisu connoisseur. Anyway, I made this recipe with Vincenzovo savoiardi (I tried making some myself for the first time, the texture wasn't right and I didn't have enough time to do a redo.), sweetened my espresso with some dark brown sugar, and threw in around 1/2 cup (~118 ml) of Disaronno's Amaretto. I also opted to put cocoa powder/dark chocolate shavings for the 1st layer, and the top one as well, and put a squeeze of lemon into the egg whites as shown in this video. I live in the US, and near where I live there wasn't any options to buy pasteurized eggs (Our eggs in America are not as "safe" to eat raw) compared to other countries, so I had to manually pasturize the eggs myself. Anyway, I pretty much followed the recipe, minus those additions I've mention beforehand. After all that, my brother said this was the best Tiramisu he's ever had. He absolutely **loves** it, going so far as to go for multiple servings! It really made his day, especially since he's a very food-driven person and just _loves_ food-he's a chef so that's probably why. But he really loved it, and I just wanted to thank you. I will definitely be following this recipe everytime I make some Tiramisu, make sure to give my thanks to your grandmother if she's around! ❤

[@vernajewel91]

@@haya4895 might be dangerous for children or people with weak immune system. Eggs should be fresh, best bought the very same day. And the Tiramisu shouldn't stand very long in room temperature or higher. Actually, Tiramisu should be refrigerated a few hours before consumption (this has more to do with the consistency). It should be eaten the same day, leftovers should be refrigerated quickly and consumed at least the next day.
