Description
Aromatic Profile and Texture
The one-kilogram Tiri panettone features a golden and moist dough, characterised by a scent of fresh citrus fruits. On the palate, it offers a balanced flavour where notes of lemon and liqueur blend with delicate hints of butter and natural Madagascar vanilla. Its soft and airy crumb melts in the mouth, enriched by the presence of lemon paste in the dough without any additional candied fruit. The surface is covered with a white chocolate glaze prepared with cream and real liqueur, providing a creamy consistency. It contains authentic alcohol in the coating and is therefore suitable for an adult audience.
Production Method and Artisanal Recipe
The softness of this leavened product stems from an artisanal process that requires seventy-two hours of slow processing. The cake is prepared following an exclusive method based on three separate kneading phases, using only natural sourdough starter to ensure an optimal structure. The recipe calls for the use of selected ingredients, including fresh eggs, honey and white chocolate. After baking, the product is left to cool upside down for at least sixteen hours, a fundamental step to keep its tall and airy structure intact.
Serving Suggestions and Storage
This leavened treat is suitable for various occasions, proving perfect as an after-meal dessert paired with a sparkling wine or a small glass of chilled limoncello. Its aromatic profile also makes it suitable for accompanying a cup of afternoon tea. Before serving, it is recommended to let the panettone rest in a warm environment to enhance the aromas and the softness of the dough. Presented in a pyramidal box in blue and gold tones, it contains gluten, eggs, milk and soy, and may contain traces of sesame and nuts.
History and curiosities
This artisanal masterpiece pays homage to the illustrious tradition of the Amalfi Coast, relying on the exclusive Tiri method. The creation of this sweet treat requires no fewer than seventy-two hours of slow preparation. A truly distinctive feature is the unusual combination of three separate dough stages using natural sourdough to achieve maximum softness. A fascinating detail is the ingenious baking in a jar, where the leavened product bakes directly inside the container to seal in the aromas, before resting upside down for sixteen hours, thus preserving its sublime structure.
