From Italian tiramisu translates as "cheer me up", which is due to its nutritional properties and the presence of coffee in the ingredients. There is no exact version of the appearance of this dessert. Many historians are inclined to believe that his recipe was invented in the 60s in the Alle Beccherie restaurant in Treviso. Chef Roberto Linguanotto, who has worked as a pastry chef in Germany for a long time, combined recipes for Bavarian sweets with the Italian tradition of giving children yolk whipped with sugar for general strengthening. And so a new dessert was born.
For the first time the word "tiramisu" appeared on the pages of the Italian language dictionary by Sabatini Coletti in 1980. And the tiramisu recipe itself was first published in 1983 in the book "Veneto Sweets" by Giovani Capnista.
Since raw eggs are used for dessert, choose fresh and tested eggs, rinse them thoroughly with soda before breaking.
If you disdain to use raw eggs in desserts, then replace the whipped whites with whipped cream. And beat the yolks in a water bath.

How do I know if an egg is fresh? Break it into a separate container. First of all, there should be no unpleasant smell. The protein of fresh eggs will be transparent and clean. The yolk should not spread and will be shiny, convex, homogeneous.

Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.
