After the classic version, the pistachio, the hazelnut, the lemon, the egg-free version, the tart, the charlotte, the grand chef version by Karim Bourgi, here I am again with a new tiramisu to celebrate the arrival of spring, and with it the first strawberries! This is a fruity and fresh version, and as always with tiramisu, if you're short on time or don't have an oven, you can use store-bought ladyfingers.

Equipment:
I used my Kenwood Cooking Chef for the ladyfinger as well as for the sabayon: code FLAVIE = 3 accessories of your choice offered with the purchase of a cooking chef / commercial collaboration.

Ingredients:
I used strawberry inspiration from Valrhona grated for the finishing touches (code ILETAITUNGATEAU for 20% off sitewide) but you can also use freeze-dried strawberry powder (code ILETAITUNGATEAU for 5% off sitewide). Commercial collaboration.
I used pasteurized egg whites so that the cake can be consumed by everyone, as well as the perforated baking sheet & the piping bags from Guy Demarle: referral code FLAVIE10 to be entered at registration for €10 off your first order / commercial collaboration.

Tiramisu fraises 14

Preparation time: 1 hour + 12 minutes of baking + 4 hours of resting
For 6 to 8 people:

 Shopping list:
7 egg whites
 220g of granulated sugar
 8 egg yolks
 100g of T55 flour
 QS of icing sugar
 The juice of 1 lemon
 500g of mascarpone
 400g of strawberries
 Freeze-dried strawberry powder or strawberry inspiration
 
 The ladyfinger:
 
120g of egg whites (about 4 whites)
 100g of granulated sugar
 80g of egg yolks (about 5 yolks)
 100g of T55 flour
 QS of icing sugar
 
 You will have too many biscuits, you can reduce the quantities a bit if desired, otherwise they keep well in an airtight box for a few days.

 Start by preparing a French meringue: whip the egg whites until stiff, then stabilize them by adding the sugar in three batches while gradually increasing the speed of the mixer. The meringue is ready when it is smooth, shiny, and forms a bird's beak.

 Then, add the egg yolks and whisk again for a few seconds, just enough to incorporate them, and finish by folding in the sifted flour with a spatula.

 Put the batter into a piping bag fitted with a smooth nozzle of 10 to 12mm in diameter.
 Pipe biscuits about 2cm wide and 7cm long. Dust them with icing sugar for the first time, when the sugar is absorbed, dust them again.

 Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 10 to 12 minutes (keep an eye on them depending on your oven). Let cool.

 The lemon soaking syrup:

 140g of water
 50g of granulated sugar
 The juice of 1 lemon
 
 Put all the ingredients in a saucepan, bring to a boil and let cool.
 
 The sabayon:

 3 egg yolks
 50g of sugar
 45g of prepared lemon syrup
 
 If you don't want to make a sabayon and consuming raw yolks is not a problem for you, you can whisk the yolks with the sugar to blanch them, and move on to the mascarpone cream.

 If you are using the cooking chef to prepare it, follow the instructions directly on the machine.
 Otherwise, here’s the recipe: whisk the egg yolks with the sugar until the mixture whitens and doubles in volume. Place this mixture over a double boiler and continue whisking over the heat to thicken. The cream should be smooth. Then gradually add the sugar syrup while continuing to whisk over the heat for about ten minutes. Whisk a little more off the heat, then let cool.

 The mascarpone cream:

 The sabayon
 500g of mascarpone
 3 egg whites
 20g of sugar
 
 Incorporate the mascarpone into the sabayon while whisking well to achieve a smooth cream.
 Whip the egg whites with the sugar until they are stiff.

 In a dish, place a layer of ladyfingers soaked in the lemon soaking syrup. Spread half of the mascarpone cream, then half of the strawberries. Repeat with a layer of soaked biscuits, the second half of the strawberries, and then the rest of the mascarpone cream. Smooth the surface, and place the tiramisu in the refrigerator for at least 3 to 4 hours.
