I know Charles is a fan of tiramisu. I am, too, but perhaps not to the degree that Charles is. I wonder what my friend might think of "Oreo tiramisu."
I'm not a tiramisu purist, so I think this looks damn good. I had to laugh when the guy simply gave up on trying to pronounce mascarpone. He's probably seen too many goofy Americans mispronouncing it as "Mars Capone." But just look at the orthography, geniuses: mas-car-po-ne! It's not that hard, is it? (Oh, no—I'm doing it again.)

That's not a tiramisu. That's just Oreos and Mars Capone (Al's long lost brother, in case you were wondering). The ratio also looks way off. Mind you, I'm just going by the image; I refuse to watch a video by anyone who can't properly pronounce marscapone.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't say I'm a super fan of tiramisu. I like it when it's done well (such as the one we had at Con Patate), but I'd take a good chocolate cake over it any day.
I had to revise my response once I realized we had been to Con Patate. I didn't have a tiramisu there (very sweet hot chocolate instead), but you might have. I can't remember. I do, however, remember the tiramisu from Puccini, which was awesome.
DeleteYou didn't have the pistachio tiramisu at Con Patate? I could have sworn we shared that one Lady and the Tramp style.
DeleteNo, I had the super-sweet hot chocolate that I said was good but probably not for you given how sweet it was.
DeleteYeah, I do remember that. I suppose me eating the whole piece of tiramisu myself would explain why I remember feeling like I was going to explode.
