Story behind the dish

Tiramisu is a very recognizable Italian classic. This version without raw eggs uses semi-whipped cream to lighten the mascarpone, making the dessert safer and somewhat lighter without losing the characteristic creaminess. The result remains absolutely irresistible.

Chef's tips

  • Refrigerate what you do not consume the same day: uncooked dishes require maximum freshness.
  • Take the eggs out of the refrigerator in advance if the recipe requires it: they temper better and set more stable.
