Traditional Milanese panettone is a naturally leavened baked cake, characterized by its tall, soft structure and a light, airy crumb. It is made with ingredients such as flour, butter, eggs, sugar, and sourdough starter, with the addition of raisins and candied citrus peel. The surface has a thin, golden crust, while the interior retains a soft and even texture. Its preparation requires long, carefully controlled processing times, necessary to develop the structure and stability of the product. It is packaged whole, ready to be consumed or stored.
