VENETIAN PANETTONE Makes 1 large or 2 small loaves
Panettone is a Christmas bread that is made all over Italy. It has a traditional Italian
combination of orange peel, citron, and raisins in an airy egg bread dough. While
panettone was known and eaten in the Middle Ages, it had a different shape than it
does now. It looked like an Irish soda bread, a round freeform loaf with a cross on top.
It was first baked in a tall cylindrical mold by a Milanese baker in 1921, and it is this
shape that is common today.
Fiori di Sicilia, available from The Baker’s Catalogue, is a combina-
tion of vanilla and citrus combination of vanilla and citrus flavors, a traditional Sicil-
ian touch to panettone that gives an aroma of vanilla and flowers. Vanilla extract will
also do nicely here.
This bread is perfect for brunch with cappucino or tea. Day-old
panettone is good sliced into thick fingers and baked in a single layer on an ungreased
baking sheet at 300ºF for 45 minutes, or until pale golden and crisp. Similar to bis-
cotti, these dry toasts can be served as an accompaniment to fresh fruits, sorbets, and
gelatos.
