The Christmas and year-end period in Italy is not complete without the traditional panettone. In Italy, this cake is as iconic as the Christmas tree, the nativity scene, or the mistletoe. Usually, the panettone is given as a gift to good friends and family, as symbol of luck and prosperity in the coming year.
A time-consuming but special process
Panettone is made during a long process in which the dough is fermented, similar to sourdough. Just the the court process takes a few days, which gives the cake its characteristic airy structure. It contains candied orange, lemon, and lemon peel, as well as raisins that are added dry and not soaked.
In addition to the classic variant, there are now many other variations available, such as panettone with chocolate, pistachio cream, amarena cherries and chocolate, pear and chocolate, or limoncello. It is traditionally served in wig shapes, cut vertically, often accompanied by sweet warm drinks or a dessert wine such as passito.
