Italian Tiramisu
Tiramisu is a world-renowned Italian dessert made of layers of biscuits and a creamy mixture prepared from mascarpone cheese and beaten eggs. The name of this popular dessert literally translates to "pick me up." If you prepare tiramisu according to the original recipe, it will truly wake you up and "lift you up." This is achieved by the strong black coffee in which the biscuits are soaked and the cocoa powder used to dust the dessert.

At first glance, the dish appears to be a variation of Spanish paella. However, its origin story traces back to a completely different place. It is said to have originated in New Orleans when a distinguished tourist entered a local tavern late at night.
