Pistachio tiramisu

Original taste tiramisu

At the beginning of this year we went for a weekend to Budapest. One of the nights there, we had a very good meal in a nice restaurant and as my husband is a tiramisu lover – we ordered it for dessert. But, it was quite an unusual and tasty tiramisu – pistachio tiramisu. I really enjoyed it. Thus, I’ve decided to prepare it myself. Enjoy this pistachio tiramisu!

Upside-down apple pie

The “tarte Tatin” is an upside-down pie in which the fruit (usually apples) is caramelized in butter and sugar before the pie is baked. As the base you can use either short-crust pastry or puff pastry. I’ve prepared an apple tarte tatin with well caramelized ‘Golden Delicious’ apples and shortcrust pastry.
