Thanks to tvhappy.ro for this image of Panettone Genovese |
When we say "Panettone", we usually think of the "Milanese" version of this Italian Christmas cake. But there is also panettone from the city of Genova. This is much easier to prepare (the panettone from Milan takes 24 hours to make!) and has pinenuts as an added ingredient.
Panettone Genovese
500g self raising flour, 200g of sugar, 150g of butter, 100g of raisins, 50g of pinenuts, 50g of candied citrus peel, 1 egg, 1 lemon, 1/2 glass of Marsala wine (or other dessert wine), a pinch of salt.
Mix flour with sugar, raisins, pinenuts, candied citrus peel, a pinch of salt, lemon zest. Form a well with this mix and put an egg, 1/2 glass of Marsala wine, the juice of a lemon and melted butter in the middle. Knead the dough for a few minutes then shape it into a ball. Put the dough on a greased oven tray. Let rest for half an hour. Bake for 45 minutes at 180 - 200 C. Serve at room temperature.
Buone Feste!
