1.

Note: Tiramisu needs mascarpone cheese, but it is difficult to buy mascarpone. If there is no mascarpone, cream cheese can be used as a substitute. The production steps of 1-6 are just an alternative method for students without mascarpone. If there is mascarpone, please skip and start from step 7. Cut the lemon, squeeze out the lemon juice by hand, pour 45 grams of whipped cream into a bowl, add 5 grams of lemon juice, stir gently until the whipped cream becomes solid, add the solidified whipped cream into the whipped cream cheese and stir well.

2.

Put the egg yolk and 60 grams of fine sugar in a bowl. Boil hot water in the pot, put the bowl with egg yolk in the pot, heat and turn off the water (don't boil), and keep stirring until the fine sugar dissolves and the egg yolk turns white. Beat 120ML whipped cream to 70%, not too hard. Beat mascarpone cheese with a blender until it is loose, mix it with egg yolk in 8 and light cream in 9, and stir evenly to make cheese stuffing.

3.

Pour 50 ml of coffee and wine. Take a lady's finger, quickly soak it in coffee wine and spread it at the bottom of the cup. Pour some cheese stuffing into the glass, repeat step 12, then spread a layer of lady finger on the cheese stuffing, then add the cheese stuffing and smooth it. Refrigerate for more than 4 hours. Sprinkle cocoa powder before eating. If you like, you can decorate the surface with powdered sugar.

Cooking tips

1. Tiramisu is a dessert that doesn't need baking. Traditional Tiramisu should be made of espresso, mascarpone cheese, Finger Lady and marsala wine from Sicily. The formula introduced in this paper is an adjusted formula;

2. The substitution method of mascarpone cheese introduced in this paper is only a stopgap measure for students who really can't buy mascarpone, but it is recommended to buy mascarpone cheese as much as possible because its taste is irreplaceable;

Coffee wine is a mixture of strong coffee and spirits. If there is no coffee wine, a pack of instant coffee can be dissolved with 50ML rum instead;

Tiramisu must be refrigerated for 4 hours before eating. Don't be impatient.

5. If you want to make cake-like tiramisu, you must use gelatine powder to help shape it. But I especially like the soft version of Tiramisu without Geely powder, so my Tiramisu is also made without Geely powder. This particularly delicate and soft taste, once tasted, will not be forgotten.
