A savory panettone which, depending on the area, may undergo variations while maintaining its constants: cheese, pecorino cheese, salt and pepper. As per tradition, this soft rustic is accompanied by the flavors of the capocollo, boiled eggs and wine and in ancient times it was customary to prepare it during Holy Week and then take it to church, to be blessed, on Easter day.<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s see how it is prepared.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-xs-4 ricettaSinistra\">\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Ingredients<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">500 gr of flour<br \/>\n20 gr of fresh brewer&#8217;s yeast<br \/>\n100 gr of pecorino<br \/>\n150 gr of parmesan<br \/>\n150 gr of emmenthal<br \/>\n1 glass of oil<br \/>\n1 glass of milk<br \/>\n4 eggs<br \/>\nsalt<br \/>\npepper<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-xs-8 ricettaDestra\">\n<h3>Process<\/h3>\n<p>We begin by dissolving the yeast in the milk and let it rest. We mix eggs, pecorino, parmesan, flour, oil, salt and pepper to taste and at the end we also add the dissolved yeast. Beat the mixture well, working it with your hands or, even better, with the mixer and once all the ingredients are well mixed, pour them into two tall molds, for those who choose to prepare two or a large one if you prefer to have one only cake, pouring the dough just under half. We add the emmenthal into pieces by putting it directly into the dough and let it rise for a couple of hours covered with a cloth. We heat the oven to the maximum and then lower it to 180-190 degrees and bake. Once they have a golden appearance let them cool in the open and off oven.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Enjoy your meal!<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Photo by dissapore.com<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discover Umbrian cheese cake, a soft and tasty Easter rustic dish made with pecorino and Parmesan cheese, traditionally served with cold cuts and hard-boiled eggs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":317139,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"single-post-blog-pro.php","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1537],"tags":[164859],"village-conntection":[50447],"class_list":["post-231356","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-traditional-cooking","tag-traditional-dish","village-conntection-bevagna-it"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231356","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=231356"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231356\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/317139"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=231356"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=231356"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=231356"},{"taxonomy":"village-conntection","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.e-borghi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/village-conntection?post=231356"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
