ingredients for the perfect creamy tiramisu
All-purpose flour.
I use flour type 405.Eggs.
We will need eggs for the cake and egg yolks for the cream.Sugar.
White sugar is the best option for this recipe.Mascarpone cheese.
It is an Italian double or triple cream cheese ( 80 % fat). The flavor is slightly sweet, which is perfect for the Tiramisu.heavy cream.
The heavy cream is going to make the Tiramisu more fluffy and lighter.Vanilla extract.
High-quality organic vanilla extract is the best option.Espresso.
If you cannot make espresso, make a very strong coffee. If you don’t want caffeine, make decaf coffee. The thing we need is the coffee taste.Amaretto or Cherry juice.
if you want to make the tiramisu alcohol-free, use sour cherry juice and a sprinkle of cinnamon. It will taste amazing.Cocoa
how to make the tiramisu pregnant friendly
- If you are pregnant, you shouldn´t eat raw eggs or any dairy product which is made out of not pasteurized cream. Most commercial mascarpone cheeses are made out of pasteurized cream; just check it before buying. Leave the egg yolks out of the cream recipe, as it is not pregnant-safe. Mix the sugar with the mascarpone and add the heavy cream as the instruction says.
- Instead of the Amaretto, use sour cherry juice and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
- Instead of espresso, use decaf coffee.
how to make the tiramisu kids breastfeeding-friendly
- If you are breastfeeding or have kids, then the traditional recipe is unsafe for you or the kids.
- Instead of espresso, use decaf coffee; this works really well.
- Instead of the Amaretto, use sour cherry juice and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
