Ingredients for a Crowd-Pleasing Tiramisu
For those looking to recreate this delightful dessert at home, here’s what you’ll need for six servings:
– 500 g of mascarpone
– 350 g of skyr
– 6 eggs
– 120 g of sugar
– 1 kg of cherries (800 g for compote, the rest for decoration)
– 1 lime
– A pack of ladyfinger biscuits
– Milk, for soaking the biscuits
Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Your Masterpiece
This tiramisu recipe involves several steps, each adding to the complex flavors and textures of the final dish:
1. Start by washing 800 g of cherries and cook them in a sauté pan.
2. Add lime juice and 50 g of sugar, then cover and cook until they turn into a compote.
3. In a separate bowl, mix skyr with mascarpone.
4. Separate egg yolks from whites. Whip the yolks with the remaining sugar until frothy.
5. Combine the fluffy yolks with the skyr and mascarpone mixture until smooth.
6. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then gently fold into the main mixture. Chill this mixture.
7. Once the cherries are soft, mash them and remove all pits—this step requires patience but is crucial for a smooth compote.
8. Soak ladyfingers in milk briefly, then lay half in a dish, top with a layer of the mascarpone and skyr cream, followed by a layer of cherry compote. Repeat the layers, ending with compote.
9. Freeze the assembled tiramisu for two hours, then transfer to the refrigerator for another two hours to set perfectly.
10. Garnish with whole cherries, grated lime zest, and edible flowers for an enchanting presentation.
