The Grossi family is behind some of Melbourne’s most iconic restaurants, including Italian dining institution Florentino, which first opened on Bourke Street in 1928, as well as nearby Grill and Cellar Bar.
“This tiramisu recipe is the same one we’ve been making for years,” says chef and restaurateur Guy Grossi. “It doesn’t use cream like some do but instead gets its light, luxurious cream from a mix of mascarpone and Italian meringue ... We use Strega and sambuca [liqueurs] and espresso freshly extracted from the machine.”
Grossi says the tiramisu is so popular it draws people into his restaurants just for dessert.
It’s one of several handmade dishes now available on Grossi A Casa, a new online grocer with ready-made meals by Gross
