But no matter what the legend is, for most Tiramisu fans, it does not affect its status in the hearts of most Tiramisu fans.

The boy firmly believes that the "Tiramisu" cake with a similar name to Tianned will bring him good luck. So he spent many days and nights making a very exquisite cake according to the tiramisu making method, and named the cake "Tiramisu Love". Then the girl ate the cake and felt a lot of love.

[Edit this paragraph] Tiramisu recipe

Looking back at the origin of Tiramisu’s deliciousness, in addition to handwork, most of it comes from the exquisiteness of the materials. Among them, Three ingredients, including Mascarpone cheese, Marsala wine and Ladyfinger (finger biscuits), can be said to be the most important keys to controlling the quality of Tiramisu.

The traditional recipe of tiramisu does not add alcohol at all. Some people insist that it is considered orthodox by adding Marsala wine produced in Sicily, Italy, so that it can exude an elegant and mellow fragrance.

This kind of tiramisu with Marsala wine is indeed unique and has gradually been accepted by people. In addition, brandy, coffee liqueur (Kahlus) or other fruit wines are also added. In addition to wine, in the traditional recipe, the important Mascarpone cheese is also replaced by cream cheese (cream cheese); without Ladyfinger, sponge cake is used instead; in addition to the traditional flavor of cream-cheese-coffee-cocoa-(wine), there is also There are variations that use orange, matcha, etc. instead of coffee-cocoa. After various alternative products are borrowed and reorganized, whether it can still be regarded as tiramisu is a matter of opinion.

Authentic tiramisu has a heavy sugar content and the cake is very moist. The sugar water is spread on the cake, and the aroma of cheese and cake melt into one. The soft tiramisu in a cup needs a short freezing time, usually one or two hours; while the pastry-style tiramisu is more "firm" and needs to be frozen for five or six hours. Authentic tiramisu ingredients are relatively expensive. The main ingredient, Mascarpone cheese, is quite expensive (about 500 grams costs about 100 yuan), and the bottom layer, Ladyfinger, is also key. In order to reduce the cost burden, some businesses often replace finger biscuits with cheaper sponge cakes. They also often "cut corners" in the amount of Mascarpone cheese, or replace it with cream cheese or add fresh cream. Sometimes this even causes coagulation. Insufficient, resulting in its concentration, flavor and texture in the mouth are slightly inferior to the authentic tiramisu.

Generally speaking, in order not to affect the rich and sweet taste of tiramisu, it is not recommended to enjoy it with wine except with tea and coffee. However, if it is used as an after-dinner dessert, it may be eaten after the meal. Finally, before eating tiramisu, drink some French Sauternes or German noble lady sweet white wine to clear your mouth; after eating, drink some sweeter Spanish Sherry or Portuguese Port and other fortified wines. To bring out the excellent effect of delicious multiplication.

Because tiramisu contains extremely high fat and calories, its consumption depends on personal needs and physical constitution, so the number of people who can eat the recipe is difficult to determine.
