Panettone

11 Comments / Uncategorized, Bread / By

In Italy, the very notion of a “quick” panettone is a contradiction. The soul of the traditional Milanese Christmas bread is its Lievito Madre—a mild, natural starter that demands time, patience, and care. This cherished ingredient is what gives authentic panettone its unparalleled texture and remarkable shelf-life. For the purists and the ambitious bakers ready to embrace this fantastic leaven, I invite you to dive into my newly released, meticulously crafted Panettone Milanese recipe. For those seeking a welcome shortcut during the hectic holiday season, this quick panettone recipe is your answer. It swaps the natural starter for commercial yeast, and taste-wise, the two are surprisingly close. The true difference lies in the crumb: the Lievito Madre creates a texture that is far superior and extends the bread’s life from a mere three days to an incredible three weeks. So now you have two paths to the perfect holiday table: one of tradition, and one of convenience. Whichever you choose, I will show you all the secrets you need to know to achieve a magnificent panettone. Happy holidays

Tiramisu is a true culinary gem hailing from the beautiful country of Italy. Originating from the regions of Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia, the birthplace of many other beloved Italian dishes, Tiramisu holds a special place in the hearts of Italians and dessert enthusiasts worldwide. Its origins may be debated, but its incredible taste and popularity are unanimous. What sets my Tiramisu recipe apart is the coffee gel inserted within the mascarpone filling. Each layer is delicately balanced to create a harmonious symphony of flavors. The coffee-soaked ladyfingers provide a satisfying crunch, while the creamy mascarpone mixture adds a velvety smoothness. A final dusting of cocoa powder on top adds a touch of elegance, making this yule log as visually stunning as it is delicious.

French version. Video et recette en version Française.
Un jour mon petit fils Josué me dit: ”Papino, on ne peut plus trouver de la crema bueno, aka: El Mordjene”. Rupture de stock. Je lui dit alors: ”mais c’est quoi se truc la?”
J’ai vite compris qu’il fallait que je trouve une alternative. Il n’y en a plus?.. et bien on va la faire.
La Créma Bueno, ou plus communément connue sous le nom de El Mordjene, est une pâte à tartiner algérienne très prisée, récemment popularisée sur les réseaux sociaux malgré son interdiction dans l’Union européenne en raison de sa composition. El Mordjene se distingue par son goût et sa texture plus souple que le Nutella. Inspiré de l’intérieur du Kinder Bueno, la crema bueno est riche en noisettes, contient des produit laitiers, du sucre et des graisses végétale. J’ai donc imaginé une formule facile a reproduire à la maison et sans huile de palme. Mon secret? c’est la confiture de lait!

With its smooth and creamy texture and the perfect balance of warm spices, this pie is a true masterpiece that will impress your guests and leave them begging for seconds. Pumpkins, believed to have originated in Central America over 7,500 years ago, have come a long way in terms of variety and flavor.

Some are better suited for carving, while others, like the Sugar Pie Pumpkin and Honeynut Squash, are perfect for turning into delicious pies.

Why? Because leftover pumpkin meat is incredibly versatile and can be used in a variety of dishes. Whether you want to whip up a savory side dish, a comforting soup, or a nutritious smoothie, having some roasted pumpkin in your freezer will always come in handy.
