    Mascarpone is my "secret ingredient" for Thanksgiving mashed potatoes... Well, that and enough Irish butter to choke a rhinoceros.

    I am truly blessed with a farmer that I can get milk other dairy product and cream from. I mean triple cream. I’m talking It is truly wonderful. Well since I have these resources available to me I am able to make mascarpone cheese. Of course butter ice cream and crème fraîche. Plus a whole bunch of other stuff. I mean I really just can’t even tell you how great of a resource it is.

    I just use Mascarpone Saturday night as a “Surprise Ingredient” in a quick Zucchini & Cherry Tomato Sauce. I had some leftover from the Dessert I made. Oh my goodness, it really kicked up my recipe! Everyone was raving about my Pasta Course. I used the Galbani, I live in New Jersey in the sticks (I’m originally from Brooklyn) the Galbani was the only brand that the only Italian Speciality Store near me offered. Beggars can’t be choosy where I live. 😂🤣🤣

    So how does British clotted cream stack up against mascarpone by being heated as well, and having that creamy texture and sweet cream flavor, ... but not necessarily having any acidic/rennet processing like modern cheese ?

    The Trader Joe's version looks good and reasonable; only $3 for a tub I think. Glad to know most of them are indistinguishable in a tiramisu (where the Kahlúa and coffee flavor of the biscuits pretty much negates the flavor differences haha)

      Does the TJ's version represent how mascarpone is actually supposed to taste? I just bought some from TJ's and I don't taste any tanginess at all, it just tastes kind of like bland, stiffened heavy cream or something.

    Sounds like using cream cheese with some heavy whipping cream or sour cream would be essential the same thing for cheaper.

    • @staceye2851
      @staceye2851 Před 3 lety

      It is. That's exactly how I make a much cheaper mascarpone for my tiramisu and lemon parfaits. It's hack for when I can't get my hands on any, or it's far too expensive, or it's only sold in big tubs and I only need 1/3 of it. Make my own, on the fly, any time I want. Check out Bigger Bolder Baking's channel, and search for her tiramisu recipe for that hack.

  • @danielleanderson6371

    Thank you, thank you, thank you for not saying "marscapone". That's my number one pet peeve with shows like Cutthroat Kitchen and Chopped. Nobody knows how to say mascarpone, despite all allegedly being professional chefs. It's (almost, depending on your first language) literally pronounced exactly like it's spelled. It's not like a Favre situation where the consonants move around between writing and pronunciation.
