Instructions

  • Pour the milk into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Place two bags of green tea in the milk and allow to infuse for 10 minutes. Remove tea bags and let the milk cool.
  • In a large bowl beat the mascarpone until soft, add powdered sugar and mix until smooth. Add vanilla bean paste, pistachio paste and mix until smooth.
  • Add heavy cream and whip to stiff peaks. Set aside.
  • Dip each ladyfinger into the milk, then arrange at the bottom of a 20X30cm (8X12-inch) pan. Spread half of the cream on top of the biscuits. Then arrange another layer of dipped ladyfingers. Spread the remaining half of cream.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Notes

  • FAQs: Make sure you read the FAQs for this recipe which are located below the recipe box for additional tips and troubleshooting! For extra tips and variations read the whole article.
  • Don’t oversoak the ladyfingers: A quick dip in the tea-infused milk (or coffee, if you prefer) prevents sogginess while still absorbing flavor.
  • Chill overnight: Let the tiramisu sit in the fridge for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to develop and the layers to set.
  • High-quality pistachio paste: For the best flavor, use a high-quality or homemade pistachio paste.
  • Top just before serving: Sprinkle the crushed pistachios right before serving to maintain their crunch.
  • Use coffee instead of tea: If you prefer a classic flavor, you can substitute green tea with coffee for a more traditional tiramisu twist.
