It’s Strawberry Season in Provence a Recipe to Celebrate

Dessert · Guest Post · Provencal Recipes · Taste

The new fraises garriguettes have arrived in Aix, and my goodness, are they good!

Some years ago, La Provence published a recipe for a tiramisu with raspberries but I’ve found strawberries are just as delicious, and this is now a firm favourite.

First of the season strawberries

Tiramisu aux Fraises

Ingredients:

250g strawberries, sliced
250g mascarpone
3 eggs – separated
75g sugar
lemon zest or a little juice
10 biscuits ‘Roses de Reims’

Directions:

  1. Crush the biscuits to fine pink powder and put half in the base of 4 glasses
  2. Put mascarpone in a dish and soften it with a fork
  3. Beat egg yolks with sugar and lemon. Mix into the mascarpone
  4. Whip the egg whites until firm and fold into the mixture
  5. Now for the layering: add half strawberries to biscuit layer then cover with cream mixture, and repeat. Decorate with a little of the pink biscuit powder and a slice of strawberry.

La Provence said this recipe is for 4, but it is quite filling; I make 6 smaller portions. The Roses de Reims biscuits (pink lady’s fingers) are available in Monoprix.

Bon Appetit!
