Excessive breathing creates low levels of carbon dioxide in your blood. This causes many of the symptoms of hyperventilation. Feeling very anxious or having a panic attack are the usual reasons that you may hyperventilate.
Ladyfingers (often called savoiardi and in British English sponge fingers) are low density, dry, egg-based and sweet sponge biscuits roughly shaped like a large finger. They are a principal ingredient in many dessert recipes, such as trifles, charlottes, as fruit or chocolate gateau linings and for tiramisu.
Classic Tiramisu is made with ladyfingers soaked in coffee, and occasionally marsala wine or rum. The soaked ladyfingers are alternately layered with mascarpone cheese, which is normally mixed with the traditional zabaglione custard. This provides a cake of several layers, which is often topped off with cocoa powder. Common mistakes in making Tiramisu are over-soaking the ladyfingers.
