When you make a tirimasu...?

Question

Most recipes show the cake made in glass bowl. How then, to you serve it without just mutilating the cake?

Answer 1

I make mine in a rectangular "lasagna" dish and after its been in the fridge for a couple of hours it's easier to get cleaner neater looking pieces.

Answer 2

INGREDIENTS: 8 ounces mascarpone an Italian cream cheese
3 tablespoons heavy cream -
1/3 cup powdered sugar sifted
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar -
2 - egg whites -
12 - crisp lady finger cookies -
1 cup espresso or very strong brewed coffee cooled to room temperature
1/2 cup cognac or good brandy -
1/4 cup cocoa powder unsweetened



DIRECTIONS:
Beat together mascarpone, cream and icing sugar until very smooth and fluffy. (Just as a reminder, there is no substitute for mascarpone).
Beat egg whites and granulated sugar until they reach the soft peak stage.
Stir a tablespoon or so of the beaten egg whites into the mascarpone mixture to lighten it, gently fold in the remaining whites and set aside.
Combine cooled coffee and brandy in a dish large enough to float a lady finger.
Drop cookie (flat side down) into coffee mixture for about five seconds. Don't get them too soggy, the tops should still be dry.
Layer six cookies (flat side up) in a small glass oaf pan. Top with 1/2 of the mascarpone mixture and use a sieve or sifter to dust heavily with half of the cocoa.
Top with layer of six more coffee-dipped cookies (flat side down) cover with the remaining cheese mixtures and sift on the rest of the cocoa.
Chill for at least one hour, it's at its best 8 hours or so after being made.
You can also form the layers directly into 4 individual serving dishes, such as pretty glass ice cream bowls or those old-fashioned wide-rimmed shallow champagne glasses that no-one drinks champagne out of anymore....just break the dipped cookies in two to make the layers.

hope this helps

Answer 3

pictures are fake. i just bought a new aquarium and the pet shop owner said if someone tried to recreate the aquarium shown on the front, that all the plants and fish would die from overcrowding.

there are also some glass bowls that you can cook in, such as a Pyrex bowl, which is thick and can stand quick conversions between cold and heat, whereas regular glass bowls would shatter.

Answer 4

Hi, I'm Italian and I make tiramisu all the time!
I understand your concern, but this cake is not the kind you can turn upside down on a dish.
The best you can do is using a springform pan, following the process described at this web page:
