Ingredients

DOLCE FORNO MAESTRO g 3500
unsalted butter 82% fat g 2000
egg yolk g 1150
caster sugar g 700
salt g 100

Preparation

The next morning the dough should be slightly rounded.
Add the required quantities of DOLCE FORNO MAESTRO to the evening mix with the water and knead for 5-10 minutes.
Once the ingredients have been absorbed, add the sugar, salt, flavorings and a small amount of egg yolk.
Then add the remaining yolk in 2-3 times.
When the yolk is completely absorbed and an elastic and well-bound dough begins to result, incorporate the soft butter into the dough in 3-4 times.
Check that the temperature of the pasta is 26-28°C.
Gently incorporate the Cesarin candied fruit and the Goccioloni chocolate.
Place the dough to proof in a leavening compartment at 30-32°C for 90 minutes.
Divide the dough into the desired sizes (for 1 kg colomba weigh 2 pieces of 450 g each), then roll up and place on baking trays or boards and let stand for another 20 minutes.
Roll up to form loaves and place in the appropriate paper moulds.
Place in the leavening compartment at 30-32°C with relative humidity of approximately 70%, until the top of the dough almost protrudes from the moulds; if the cell is without a humidifier, keep the doves covered with plastic sheets.

Ingredients

MANDORGLASS QUICK SP g 2000
water g 1000
melted butter g 100

Preparation

Vigorously mix MANDORGLASS QUICK SP, water, melted butter for a few minutes.
Using a flexible spatula or a bag with a flat nozzle, apply a uniform layer of icing on leavened cakes.
Warnings: the preparation of the glaze must take place at the time of use.

Ingredients

pearl sugar To Taste
confectioner's sugar To Taste

Preparation

Place a generous handful of granulated sugar on top of the freshly applied icing and scatter with icing sugar

Final composition

After leavening, leave the doves exposed to the ambient air for 20-25 minutes so that a skin forms on the surface.
Cover the surface of the doves with the icing and sprinkle with sugar grains and finally scatter with icing sugar.
Bake at 160-170°C for variable times according to the weight (about 50-55 minutes for 1000 gram cakes), until the core reaches 93-95°C.
When they come out of the oven, turn the doves upside down, using the special panettone turners.
The cakes just taken out of the oven must be left to cool in position upside down for 8-10 hours before packing in moplefan bags.
