How to make lemon tiramisu

Tiramisu, an Italian dessert loved around the world, has the ability to transport us through layers of flavor and texture.

In this version, we will give it a refreshing twist with the addition of lemon, creating a unique experience for your palate.

Ingredients

  • 500 ml of milk
  • 100 g of sugar
  • 50 g of cornstarch
  • Lemon zest
  • 100 ml lemon juice
  • Milk
  • Lemon jam (optional)
  • 350 ml whipped cream
  • 45g powdered sugar

Preparation

  1. In a saucepan, combine milk, sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest and juice. Cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens, creating a deliciously aromatic filling.
  2. Let the filling cool. The lower temperature will bring out the refreshing nuances of the lemon.
  3. Gently dip the biscuits into milk, making sure not to soak them too much. Alternate layers of sponge cakes with the lemon filling and, if you wish, add an extra surprise with lemon jam between the layers.
  4. Give it an elegant finishing touch with a generous layer of whipped cream. For an extra touch of sweetness, sprinkle powdered sugar over the cream.
  5. Place your creation in the refrigerator, allowing all the flavors to meld and the layers to settle. Adequate refrigeration time, ideally a few hours or even overnight, will improve consistency and flavor.

Additional Tips to Make It Extra Special:

  • Decoration with Lemon Slices: Give the tiramisu a visually attractive touch by garnishing the top with thin lemon slices before serving.
  • More Freshness with Mint Leaves: Add additional freshness by placing some fresh mint leaves just before serving. The combination of lemon and mint is a delicious explosion of flavors.
  • Perfect Accompaniment: Serve each serving with a cup of hot lemon tea to further enhance the experience.

With these additional touches, your lemon tiramisu will be transformed into a culinary masterpiece that will delight all dessert lovers.
