thank you so much for your kind words! no, i have not tried substituting - the wine is there for both flavor and texture (because of the alcohol wine lowers the freezing point of the soaked lady fingers making sure they don't get too icy in the freezer). so nothing you substitute with will give you the same flavor and texture. but two options come to mind to try as substitutes to add more flavor and help with the texture
1. vanilla extract + liquor (in lesser quantities than the marsala wine) will add flavor and lower the freezing temperature of the soaking liquid.
2.for an alcohol free version - adding some vanilla bean paste instead of the wine will add flavor and reduce iciness, as it is made with sugar which has a lower freezing point than water, but they won't be as soft as the marsala wine version and will be a bit sweeter.
A cooking blog !!!! love it, like the movie Julie and Julia :)
This looks incredible, definitely going to make soon!
Will try, good for summer. I’d like to have tiramisu all seasons
salivating oer here
I love that it is gluten free. My family loves ice creams no matter what time of year! Can’t wait to make this! Thank you so much for sharing this.
this is crazy!! Love it! I like the way of your photography
Looks incredible! Will certainly be trying this one. I wonder if I can substitute granulated Stevia for the sugar. Will have to try that.
love your page/mood/and the fact that you write in small caps (i do it too) :)
have you tried replacing the marsala wine with something else? if so, what can i use instead ? will it still keep the same taste?
