Ingredients
- Ladyfingers (Quantity not specified; needed for the tiramisu layers.)
- 500 g Mandarins (Peel, blend, and strain; use some of the juice for the curd and the rest to soak the ladyfingers.)
- 2 Orange zest (Add some to the curd and reserve the rest for garnishing the top.)
- 200 ml Water
- 100 g Cornstarch
- 100 g Sugar
- 60 g Butter
- 2 Egg yolks
- 450 g Mascarpone
- 200 ml 33–35% cream
- Vanilla extract (Add a little, to taste.)
- 2 tbsp Powdered sugar
Steps
- 1
Peel the mandarins, blend them, and strain them through a sieve to obtain clear juice without pulp. Use a juicer if desired.
- 2
To make the mandarin curd, place the cornstarch and sugar in a saucepan. Add 100 ml of mandarin juice and the water, then whisk until smooth.
- 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat. Whisk occasionally and wait for the mixture to thicken.
- 4
Remove the thickened mixture from the heat. Add the two egg yolks, butter, and orange zest, then stir.
- 5
Cover the mandarin curd and set it aside.
- 6
To make the cream, place the mascarpone, cream, and powdered sugar in a bowl. Beat at medium speed until thickened.
- 7
Once the cream has thickened, stop beating to avoid overwhipping it. Add a little vanilla extract and stir.
- 8
To assemble, dip the ladyfingers in the remaining mandarin juice and arrange them in a dish.
- 9
Spread a layer of cream on top, followed by a layer of mandarin curd.
- 10
Make another layer of soaked ladyfingers, cream—this time a thin layer—and mandarin curd.
- 11
Finish the dessert with the remaining cream: pipe it on with a pastry bag or simply spread it into an even layer.
- 12
Sprinkle the top with orange zest.
- 13
Refrigerate the tiramisu overnight or for at least 4 hours.
- 14
Serve chilled.
Notes
The author notes that the cream is prepared without eggs this time, but a classic version with eggs can be made if desired. The quantities of ladyfingers and vanilla extract are not specified.
