How Mascarpone Is Really Used in Italy

I use mascarpone a lot, because I make a lot of tiramisù. That‘s what mascarpone is for, right? If you’re anything like me, the word “mascarpone” just means “that creamy stuff I need for tiramisù.” Recently I learned that mascarpone was first invented in Italy in either the 16th or 17th century. Tiramisù, on the other hand, didn‘t grace the Italian culinary stage until the 1960’s at the earliest. So how the heck was mascarpone used for several hundred years? And what about now, do Italians only reach for the mascarpone when they’re whipping up dessert? Hardly, as I learned when Eva showed me a few different ways to use this under-appreciated ingredient. The only rule for this video was: no tiramisù allowed.
