Hello, I have a delicious Tiramisu recipe that require 4 eggs. I was wondering for how many days the Tiramisu will keep with all these raw eggs.

Thanks a lot.

I would say a week in the refrigerator. After that give it a sniff and check it out, could be a little longer. We make this at least 3 times a week for my family's restaurant, its not usually around for that long but if we keep some for home then thats about as long as it will stay.

Thank you for your reply, do you make yours with RAW eggs? I made some 2 weeks ago, and everybody refused to eat them after 2 days, so I had to throw away what was left, I didn't want to take the risk without knowing if it can still be edible.

Yes, raw eggs. The thought grosses me out but you can not beat the taste. Also, a little trick. Dont eat it the same day you make it. Let it set up in the fridge over night. My grandmother taught me how to make this (she speaks very bad broken English lol). Everyone swears by her tiramisu!

I am in no way an expert so I can not put a stamp on it and say "it will stay for a week always". The way we can see if it is still good is to check the color and consistency of the cream and a little taste (but no double dipping lol). We usually do not have it more than a few days, a week at max because we sell so much of it.

Just sharing my experience, please do not hold me to it, I would hate to be responsible if someone got sick. (I can see it now, someone doubled over with stomach pains cursing me lol). Use your best judgment is what I mean to say.

CbyA....I agree, original post of recipe shows a very strange amount - can someone please clarify?

I think it is supposed to say 1 and 3/4 cups Mascarpone cheese and 1/2 cup of sugar.

My recipe is almost identical except we do it in bigger batches so I use a the whole tub of Mascarpone cheese (which is 1lb 1 oz or 17 oz)

2 cups Mascarpone cheese (or the whole tub)
1 cup sugar
5 eggs (separated)
1 package of Lady Fingers
1 cup espresso coffee
3 shots liquor (Ameretto or your choice)
cocoa powder for dusting

Thanks for the clarification.....I'm having a devil of a time finding Marscapone - I've been looking because I want to try the Tiramisu Cupcake recipe in Martha Stewarts new book.

It's usually on the specialty cheese isle in the supermarket, in the fridge, next to the yougurt

Some grocery stores do not carry it. I found it in the specialty cheese section of one of my local supermarkets. Its expensive here in NJ.

Good luck and happy baking!

CbyA....that seems like an awful lot for 300 Lady Fingers. And then you would have to pay shipping. I would check out some more stores near you. One of the grocery stores here carries them. Also, if you have an Italian deli or market near by, they usually do to.
