The recipe calls for a 9"x13" pan, but to lay out 18 ladyfingers in a 3x6 pattern....if the ladyfingers are 3"x1.5", that only makes a 9"x9" grid.<br /><br />So should I be using a 9"x9" pan instead? Or am I missing something here? <br /><br />Please let me know! Thanks so much -- I am so excited to make this. I've never been let down by any of Rose's cakes from The Cake Bible. :D<br /><br />--NancyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-52420835617661127972010-09-19T08:32:10.465-07:002010-09-19T08:32:10.465-07:00Just made two and a half times the tiramisu recipe...Just made two and a half times the tiramisu recipe for a birthday party.

When we were in Italy, we walked by a restaurant which was supposed to have some of the best tiramisu in Italy. We decided we'd go back later and try it. But when we returned it was closed. Moral of the story: Never say no to tiramisu!<br />I hope you like this version.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13183158217378477758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-49957719093664767572009-08-05T03:07:28.181-07:002009-08-05T03:07:28.181-07:00I love Rose's Recipes,

Used Cookies are savoiardi or pavesini,the pastry using sponge cake. The taste changes very much for the used biscuits and for the thickness of the layers. I prefer the pavesini. <br />I prefer recipes that allow to have a particularly airy cream.<br />I have already booked to buy the book.<br />By Bicebice2007https://www.blogger.com/profile/10950640298367684319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-13939806826872637892009-07-29T17:40:40.369-07:002009-07-29T17:40:40.369-07:00Alex,

The custard has to be completely cooled before you add the mascarpone and cream, so it needs to be refrigerated a minimum of half an hour.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13183158217378477758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-58918667709868333812009-07-29T17:21:03.888-07:002009-07-29T17:21:03.888-07:00Hi,

I've only just been introduced to them as a regional phenomenon, and I'm completely smitten. I made a frightening oatmeal/butterscotch/brownie thing for the 4th, and I'm afraid it is going to be in regular dessert rotation at our house. I thought having a tag for "Bars" would be kind of boring, so I gave it, "You'd Eat it in Minnesota."

I can't wait until the book comes out either--mine is already losing a few pages and getting coffee stains.<br /><br />Rose,<br />Yes, how can dough feel fear through your fingertips? It's very odd, but I swear it's true. I've already baked the next cake (no glitches on that one either), and will post it later this week. Jim thanks you--he is very pleased, but modest, when he gets compliments on his photos.<br /><br />Oriana,<br />What a great story--my grandmothers were both German and they made more solid things than tiramisu, which they would not have approved of, but I wish I'd had lessons in how to make noodles and shoo-fly pie from them. I love the way recipes stay the same over decades in other countries, whereas here, we always want to improve. "Lite" tiramisu is not an improvement!Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13183158217378477758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-68261326053578251312009-07-05T16:22:12.243-07:002009-07-05T16:22:12.243-07:00Dear new Zen Marie, What a wonderful Tiramisu reci...Dear new Zen Marie, What a wonderful Tiramisu recipe.

My aunt had made it for me and I remember telling her that if I could get mascarpone in Canada I would make it every week. At that time you could only get mascarpone when the deli got a shipment from Italy and <br />that wasn't very often back then. The lady fingers used were called Pavasini which you can get here but today I use that exact same lady fingers you used in this recipe.<br />That original recipe did not beat the egg over simmering water! Nobody I know of got sick from the raw eggs, however, today I use the simmering water method to be safe. <br />What a great treat for your July 4 celebration.doughadearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18107772878761525846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-59495616236359408952009-07-05T15:29:50.759-07:002009-07-05T15:29:50.759-07:00jim--your photos are so great and instructive. now...jim--your photos are so great and instructive. now people will know what the difference is between over-soaked lady fingers and perfectly soaked!Rose Levy Beranbaumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14272822321509616109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-76863892002534466432009-07-05T15:28:35.955-07:002009-07-05T15:28:35.955-07:00i love the new marie but then i loved the old one ...i love the new marie but then i loved the old one too! no one writes like you and soon many will say no one bakes like you. you're right--when making dough it seems to know when you're afraid of it and takes you for a sticky ride. probably true of cakes and everything else come to think of it.<br /><br />i live for the next posting!Rose Levy Beranbaumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14272822321509616109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-32580340946660408622009-07-05T14:26:58.236-07:002009-07-05T14:26:58.236-07:00Oh I can't wait for this one!
