Tiramisu is a super popular trifle style Italian dessert that will make you weak in the knees! In this lesson, Chef Mirabel shows you how to make this delicious dessert the traditional way, with raw eggs, brandy, espresso and rich mascarpone cheese. You will learn how to make a stiff-peak meringue (and how to tell the difference between the froth, soft peak and stiff peak stages) and the best way to keep your meringue light and airy while adding in heavier ingredients. Chef Maribel even shows you how to create an alcohol-free version for those who don't drink alcohol. If you are concerned about using raw eggs, Chef Maribel explains why, on a molecular level, it is OK to use eggs in this dish, and what they add.
