This Italian Dessert is DELICIOUS... If You Avoid This Common Mistake

#zuppainglese #englishsoup #italianfood
Zuppa Inglese, or "English Soup," is a classic Italian dessert and probably the ancestor of tiramisù. The only problem? A ton of recipes make a big mistake that, ironically, makes English soup TOO soupy.
In this video, Eva shares her fool-proof Zuppa Inglese recipe so that you can make the perfect, not-too-soupy English soup.

    Yes, it's a Trifle. Every good cook has a slant on their own trifle pudding or their own anything. We do stale sponge, sprinkled with brandy or sherry, jam, custard, whipped cream. Finsh off the top with whipped cream. Assembled in a trifle bowl, a straight sided glass bowl with a pedistal so that you can see all the pretty layers. Slivered almonds over the top, or if I have them, crumbled amaretti cookies. Especially pretty during Christmastime. It's lovely in summertime too with fresh berries.

    Any British watchers will be able to see the similarities with a trifle. Alchermes is also used in peschine: two half-globes of sponge glued together with some custard, lightly dipped in alchermes, and covered with castor sugar. They are about the size of a small peach, as the Italian name suggests. And speaking of peaches, Eva, I am right now thinking of stuffed peaches with amaretti and cocoa, which is one of my favorite Summer desserts.

    It's not "similar" to a trifle. It pretty much is an English trifle, which is surely how it came to be called "English soup" - the soup part being either a mistranslation or a some kind of joke. Yes, English trifle often has some kind of fruit, and maybe jelly, but they don't have to, and they've most likely evolved into those variations. I'm guessing that the Italians adopted the recipe when it was simpler - cake, moistened with some kind of booze, covered with custard. I certainly have many recipes for English trifles that are still that basic.

    I made pane di spania, Alkermes liqueur (we used an extract mixed with a simple syrup), the lemon and chocolate custards, and royal icing with my mother. She would make this for our birthdays and it would take 3 days to complete because she didn't make a trifle with the components, she made a layer cake instead. The bottom layer was moistened with a dark rum liqueur (we made this from extract, too) and then topped with chocolate custard, and that was covered with the next layer which would be moistened with the Alkermes. That was topped with the lemon custard. Layers were repeated and then the cake was frosted with a thin layer of lemony white frosting and then left to set in the fridge overnight. My mother never called this "zuppa inglese"', she always called it "Pane di Spania", so when I came across real zuppa inglese in Italy, I didn't recognize the bright, ruby coloured dessert. I asked the waiter what it was as he wheeled it up to our table on a dessert cart. When he told me what it was called I asked him why, and he answered that centuries ago, England was the source of the ingredients needed to make the liqueur (cochineal, for the red colour). " What liqueur is that?", I asked, and he replied , " Alkermes ". I hadn't thought about it in years but I loved that flavour so I ordered it. And that first bite was what brought me right back to my mother's birthday cake. I don't know how accurate the waiter was about the English origin of the dish or its ingredients, but I choose to go along with his story!

    Hi Eva and Harper. "English soup" is a literal translation for zuppa inglese but, as others have mentioned in the comments, what you've made today is basically what in Britain would be called a trifle. I'm half Italian and was raised in Italy by an English mother. Whenever my mother would make a trifle our Italian neighbours would call it zuppa inglese so I've always thought of them being the same thing (trifle = zuppa inglese).

    My Australian auntie made this dessert and she called it a "Trifle". She didn't use chocolate, just vanilla custard. Traditionally, it was made with "flop" cakes, the cakes that fell, or leftover cake that was drying out. She would slice it up, spread each piece with jam, put the slices together like little sandwiches, and place them in a bowl. She would sprinkle either sweet port or sweet marsala over the cake, then add some warm custard, more cake, more custard, etc. At the end, she'd put tufts of whipped cream and sometimes, chunks of gelatin. You gave me a sweet memory since she's no longer here.

I can't eat raw eggs, because of a compromised immune system. I needed a recipe to cook the egg yolks, without curdling them. I drowned the egg yolks in Rum and cooked until they were starting to curdle. It never dawned on me to add flour, like an eggy bechemel. I can't have coffee, so I dunked my lady fingers in Rum. It was more like a egg nog flavor. Maybe a Fireball Whiskey could replace the Alchermes... but both would be pricey.

    I have always wondered the origin of this dessert and reading on Wikipedia I got an idea. There are various hypotheses on the origin, English, French but in my opinion the most likely is the Italian origin and I will explain why. In Italy, Alchermes was already used in dishes and desserts as early as the 16th century (like Rosolio); it was imported from Arabia through traders who came from those areas. In fact, the name derives from 'Al-qirmiz' which is the name of the cochineal, an ingredient that gave the drink its red colour. This excludes the French and English hypotheses because they are later (17th and 18th centuries). The name 'English' derives from the cream originally used, the 'English cream', which is a more liquid cream than custard as it does not have flour. This explains why the sponge cake got 'soggy'. Nowadays we use custard which is thicker and less soggy.

    So in English bringing the milk to the point of bubbling without boiling is called scalding the milk, while the whole process of adding a little hot liquid to the egg prior to mixing it all is called tempering.

    Wow! I had only heard of Zuppa Inglese through the typical Turkish pudding shop version, which they call "Supangle" (Soupe Anglais?) There, it is pretty basic: a single layer of sponge cake with a rich dark chocolate pudding over the top. A good shop will use a good dark chocolate for the pudding, but no white cream, no liqueur. I remember always wondering, "What in the world is this have to do with a England?" This one looks wonderful, and it also makes sense from the "English" standpoint: it's a lot like a horizontal trifle. But I love the addition of the dark chocolate cream!

    both grandmothers made zuppa inglese but Alchermes was not imported from Italy back in in the 1950’s. So they had to use other liqueurs and a red dye. Both grandmothers used a homemade pound-cake as the cake. we all loved it. even as kids.

    This has been my favorite desert all my life! My mother made either this or Red Velvet Cake for my birthday. Our family recipe varies slightly from this traditional version in that we use Creme Cocoa on one layer and Creme Di Noyaux (Alchemes was not available in Detroit) on the other layer... and Rum on a third when she was feeling a little saucy! Also we put both a cinnamon stick and lemon zest in the custard, more than likely to mimic the flavor of Alchemes.

    This is so funny cause I had already made plans to make a pudding / cake dessert today. I use pound cake cut into cubes. Then layer into large glasses with a layer of pistachio pudding. Then a layer of nuts and layer of whipped creme. Then repeat till glass is full. So kind of similar. Thank you for your recipe. Looks very delicious.

    Hi sweet both of you 😍😍. Throughout my entire life visiting Italy I never had Zuppa Inglese or heard of it or met it... I only knew the name of it from Italian ice-cream tasting of custard sauce. Strange, really, but now I know, so thank you so much for that, and thank you for your wonderful channel teaching me much of Italian food, I did not know, with your lovely interactions between you two, always making me in good mood 🙏🙏 😍😍💕💕❤️❤️

    Well this is NOT Italian it’s a butchering of an English trifle.. but on saying that it is as far away from a wonderful trifle as it’s possible to be. Stick to Italian desserts and leave Trifle alone. 🙄

    Hello, this dessert looks amazing! My mouth really was watering. I love custard and American style pudding. I could have grabbed those bowls of custard and hid in the closet to just eat them up! This type of dessert is one of my favorites! I love all of the videos from Dasa. You both look so relaxed and happy. I know reality will be calling and you will need to come back to the US. But this summer series has been a joy. ❤️❤️

    In addition to what other people have said about it resembling an English trifle, the word 'zuppa' used to mean anything containing soaked bread. So both parts of the name make their own kind of sense
