Undoubtedly the most famous dessert in Italian cuisine is tiramisu. Translated from Italian tiramisu means Cheer me up!. It is a cake made of biscuits soaked in coffee, spread with Mascarpone cream cheese and sprinkled with bitter cocoa.
Several different reports indicate that tiramisu originates from Treviso and more precisely - restaurant Le Beccherie. His father was the confectioner Roberto Linguano, called Loli.
However, other data indicate the birthplace of this dessert Siena, Italy. It was prepared in honor of the visit of the Tuscan Duke Cosimo Medici III. The highest person liked the cake so much that he called it the Duke's Soup.
After his visit to Siena, the duke continued his journey around the country. The recipe for tiramisu left in Florence, at that time a world intellectual center. This laid the foundations of the stellar glory of this soup.
Very soon tiramisu became popular not only among locals but also among foreigners. Thus, the recipe was transferred to England, where it was named English Soup and Trifle.
The first written records of tiramisu were discovered quite late, only in the 20th century.
Great chefs like Massimo Alberini, one of the great experts in the field of Italian cuisine, defines tiramisu as a bad workmanship and does not include it in his cookbooks. Antonio Picinardi included the dessert only in the second edition of his Dizionario di Gastronomia in 1993.
Biscuits, eggs, sugar, coffee, Mascarpone cheese and cocoa find a place in the original tiramisu recipe. The original shape of the cake was round.
Over time, and especially because of the company of cookies, we move to the use of a rectangular or square tray.
Over the years, many culinary masters have tried to change some of the main ingredients of tiramisu, such as coffee.
There are many variations of our favorite cake - tiramisu with berries, lemon, strawberries, pineapple, yogurt and raspberries, but the most popular is the classic tiramisu.
