Panettone


Ingredients for 4 people: 700 g of flour
250 g of sugar; 250 g of butter; 40 g of yeast;
6 egg yolks; 10 g of salt; 200 g of sultanas; 40 g candied orange peel; 30 g candied cedar; grated rind of 1 lemon; lukewarm water; flour for sprinkling.

Crumble the yeast in 100 g of flour and mix it with the water to make a rather consistent loaf. Cut a cross on the top of it, cover it with a wool cloth and allow it to leaven. After a quarter of an hour, put half of the flour into a bowl, open the loaf and use more water to prepare another loaf. Knead the mixture very carefully and allow it to leaven. When the volume has doubled, put it into a larger bowl, add the remaining flour, 200 g of melted butter, the yolks whipped with sugar, the grated lemon rind and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly adding more water. Continue kneading the mixture for ten minutes, add the sultanas and the grapes after swilling them in lukewarm water, drying them and sprinkling them with flour. Continue kneading the mixture until it becomes soft and smooth. Take a round mould with high edges, cover it with grease-proof paper after applying a layer of butter and place the mixture inside it. Add a few flakes of butter and insert it into a pre-heated oven. Bake it at 220° for 50-60 minutes.
