Season's Eatings - Panettone Sep 25, 2021

A Christmas without this sweet bread is barely a Christmas in Italy: loathed or loved, the Milanese born loaf is something everyone has in the kitchen this time of the year.

Famous as it is, not many are aware of its fascinating history: panettone is a cake of dreams, fit for an appearance in every fairy tale, not only because it is heavenly, but also because of the many legends surrounding its origin.
