Prep Time:30 minutes
Resting Time:2 hours
Total Time:2 hours 30 minutes
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: Italian, Japanese
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 42 savoiardi biscuits
  • 500 g mascarpone cheese
  • 5 eggs
  • 75 g sugar
  • 250 g strawberries
  • 150 g strawberry purée
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 250 ml matcha tea cooled
  • matcha powder

Instructions

  • Prepare the matcha to your liking and set aside to cool down.
  • Separate the egg yolks and whites. In a large heatproof bowl add the egg yolks and the sugar. Place the bowl on top of a pot filled with boiling water. Don’t let the water touch the bottom of the bowl.
  • Mix the egg yolks and sugar together until the mixture reaches 70°C. Or else, until the sugar crystals are completely dissolved. Once ready, set the mixture aside until it cools down completely.
  • Mix together the mascarpone cheese, salt, strawberry purée and the yolks and sugar mixture.
  • Whip the egg whites until they are fluffy and fold in gently in the mascarpone mixture, from bottom to top.
  • Gently dip the savoiardi biscuits in the cold matcha. Do not let the biscuits get completely soaked. Layer the savoiardi at the bottom of the dish.
  • Place sliced strawberries around the dish. Then, generously add the prepared cream. Repeat this process of layering the dipped matcha savoiardi and finish with the cream being the visible top.
  • Cover the tiramisù and place in the fridge. Ideally you let it rest overnight so that everything sets completely, however after 2 hours it can be enjoyed.
  • Before serving, sprinkle generously the matcha powder on top.
