Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.

Method

  1. Dip each biscuit into the espresso; place in a single layer on bottom and around sides of a glass or ceramic baking dish, about 8 inches square or similar capacity. Combine the water and powdered egg whites in a large stainless-steel bowl, stirring gently until the powder dissolves, 3 to 4 minutes. With an electric mixer, beat at medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, 5 to 7 minutes.
  2. In another large bowl, beat together the ricotta, egg substitute, mascarpone and sugar. Stir in about one-third of the beaten egg whites, then gently fold in the remainder with a rubber spatula. Pour over the ladyfingers. Cover and refrigerate 6 to 8 hours. Sprinkle with the cocoa just before serving. "Tiramisu is a festive way to end a holiday meal." "Associated Press 1999"
