Fanlistings
A fanlisting is, quite simply, a listing of fans. Fanlistings are similar to any other group or club you might join. You can join a fanlisting to 'show your love of something.' Most fanlistings have small codes, buttons, or plaques available which you can display on your own website if you'd like. Our site definition of a fanlisting is: "A fanlisting is simply an online list of fans of a subject, such as a TV show, actor, or musician, that is created by an individual and open for fans from around the world to join. There are no costs, and the only requirements to join a fanlisting are your name and country. Fanlistings do not have to be large sites (although some are); they are just a place where you can sign up with other fans.Tiramisu
Tiramisu is an Italian dessert typically made from Lady Fingers, espresso coffee, mascarpone cheese, eggs, cream, sugar, marsala wine, cocoa and rum. The name tiramisů means "pick-me-up" (metaphorically, "cheer me up"), referring to the two caffeine-containing ingredients, espresso and cocoa.The Lady Fingers are sprinkled with or briefly soaked in a mixture of the coffee, rum, and sugar. They are then layered with a mixture of mascarpone cheese and a custard made from egg yolks, marsala and sugar, known as zabaglione. Cocoa powder is then sprinkled on top.
The dessert has become one of the most popular types of dessert served in upscale restaurants of all types, not just Italian restaurants. The recipe has been adapted into cakes, puddings and other varieties of dessert. Other flavours are often used now in place of coffee, including strawberry, lemon or chocolate.
It was the sweet chosen to represent Italy in the Café Europe initiative of the Austrian presidency of the European Union, on Europe Day 2006.
Recipes
Unfortunately, I'm a flop at baking, so my inability to make Tiramisu is no surprise. However, I was told that despite its flashy appearance, tiramisu is actually quite simple to make. Here are some links providing tiramisu recipes:
