  • Learn how to make homemade mascarpone, which is very similar to regular cream cheese, except pretty much better in every way. It's not quite as tangy, but it’s richer and more decadent. Whether you're going to use it in dessert recipes, like tiramisu, or as a simple spread for bread, this recipe couldn't be easier, and only requires two ingredients. Enjoy!

    Mascarpone frosting... touch of powder sugar, a few drops of lemon juice and vanilla.
    Basically like cream cheese frosting, but with mascarpone.
    It's leagues better, it's just so decadent and rich.
    You'll want to stuff your face with it, but remember it's much like eating butter with a spoon.
    So either restrain yourself or have a bunch of lettuce ready!
    Oh and a little trick that was shared with me by a lovely young Slovakian lady from a village nearby.
    She makes the best cakes I've ever tried. She made the wedding cake for our.. well wedding :D
    For all sorts of creamy fillings where you'd normally use butter, substitute the butter with mascarpone.
    It's pretty much same % of fat (and price, at least in this part of the world) but it turns out much lighter and smoother.
    Of course, you gotta use butter for the crust and other stuff.
    Butter makes everything better.
    Cheers

      Chef John is one of my personal favorite Chef a la Culinary Educator because he's been doing this for years after retiring as an Educational Culinarian and he's sooo available. His style brings to mind Jacques Pepin simply because he gains joy from teaching. It's awesome!

    I love this kind of chef John video, because they are empowering. That sounds silly, but with all these weird food shortages, I can make mascarpone cheese if I can't find cream cheese or regular mascarpone cheese at the store as long as I can find heavy whipping cream. Thanks Chef!

      Look into Ricotta cheese. 'Not Another Cooking Show' has a very friendly video on it. Similar level of simplicity.

    • @ladyofcuriousvirtue
      @ladyofcuriousvirtue Год назад +20

      ☝️ Exactly!! Also yes Ricotta cheese is like almost the exact same thing - you just use whole milk instead of cream, and leave it to sit instead of stirring for 3 minutes. And BOOM you have cheese, suck it inflation

    • @godrilla5549
      @godrilla5549 Год назад +5

      Where I am even at the discount grocers, cream cheese is about $3 more than it use to be. Gonna do this instead. Look into dampers made with baking powder and milk for cheap, easy sandwhich bread.

    When I was a kid, living in South Africa, my dad would sometimes take us to an Italian bakery for eclairs. They were filled with "sour cream", rather than pastry cream. I've always wondered what that was because it wasn't the sour cream we know now. Now I'm thinking it was whipped sweetened mascarpone. I'm going to try whipping it to see how it turns out.

    • @user-st1hy6ql3j
      @user-st1hy6ql3j 8 месяцев назад +4

      well technically, once lemon juice is added to the cream it sours it so it's actually sour cream. The South Africans probably took that literally.
