Ingredients
Scale
Matcha Mascarpone Mixture
- 250g mascarpone, room temperature
- 60g sugar
- 1 tablespoon sifted matcha powder
- 400g heavy whipping cream
Matcha Soaking Liquid
- 12g matcha powder
- 500ml hot water
- 2 tablespoons sugar
Assembly
- 24 ladyfingers
- Additional matcha powder for dusting
Instructions
- Prepare Matcha Paste: To prevent clumping, reserve 1 tablespoon of the heavy cream and mix it with 1 tablespoon of sifted matcha powder to form a smooth paste.
- Make Mascarpone Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the mascarpone, sugar, and the prepared matcha cream paste until well incorporated.
- Whip Remaining Cream: Whip the remaining cream to medium stiff peaks, ensuring the texture is firm but still soft enough to fold gently.
- Fold Whipped Cream: Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture, taking care to retain the airy texture.
- Prepare Matcha Soaking Liquid: Using a matcha whisk and bowl, whisk together the 12g matcha powder, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 500ml hot water until the mixture is frothy. Allow it to cool completely before use.
- Dip Ladyfingers: Quickly dip each ladyfinger into the cooled matcha liquid, ensuring they absorb the flavor without becoming too soggy.
- Assemble Layers: Line an 8×8 inch (20×20 cm) dish with a layer of soaked ladyfingers. Spread or pipe half of the matcha mascarpone mixture evenly over them. Repeat with the remaining ladyfingers and mascarpone mixture to create a second layer.
- Chill: Cover the assembled tiramisu with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to let the flavors meld and the dessert set.
- Serve: Just before serving, dust the top generously with additional matcha powder for an elegant finish.
Notes
- Use room temperature mascarpone for easier mixing and a smoother texture.
- Be careful not to soak the ladyfingers too long to avoid sogginess.
- Overnight refrigeration is essential for best flavor and texture.
- You can adjust sugar levels in the matcha liquid according to your sweetness preference.
- Use a fine sieve when dusting matcha powder for an even finish.
