Golden Orange Panettone

This week I'm baking a Italian Panettone ,This has 3 stages , it has a Biga a Dough Starter (Sponge) and also a finely Dough mix  and Candied Orange Peel, Golden Raisins..
The Panettone was all most 5 1/2 inches high.....
I bought these golden raisins and Candied orange peels and soaked in triple Sec liquor , next time I will try the orange peels from scratch..
Mix the flour, yeast, and water. Cover and let marinate at room temperature for 6 hours or so until double in size....
 6 1/2 hours later....
 The biga then went to rest for 3 days in the fridge, after made the dough (sponge)....
add the dry ingredients to the biga mix it up and forgot to take a picture  , then added the egg yolks ...
Here it is with lots of bubbles and more yolks, liquid from golden raisins, orange peel, golden syrup.
 Mix on low speed for a minute, then on medium speed for 5 minutes.   
after adding butter and mix on medium speed for 5 more mins and it was ready...
Added the Golden raisins and candied orange peel to therectangle dough..
kneaded the dough
But the dough in a 3 litter bowl and cover it with plastic wrap and a class with hot water and steam thing..
 2 hours later and then in the refrigerate for an hour, And then another hour.
Add some flour on the counter with the dough.......
Patting  the dough down into a rectangle, the first letter fold..
the second letter fold...
put some oil all over the dough and in a big freezer bag and in to the fridge over night .....
while I had some time l made an extra extension aluminum flashing  I bought for 6.00 plus the tax and I cut  to"4 1/2 high by" 20 inches long. It was time to talk  out the next day and shape the dough into a ball and place in the 6 by 2" 3/4 inch spring form pan .....
into the steam again for 4 hours because the dough was cold and needed a little more time....
after 4 hrs it was ready to be baked..
over all it was very delicious and it didn't need chocolate on top, it was good with out it....
I have made panettone  before.

  4. Great job with the pan, Maggie! I also improvised but with parchment paper. I loved this recipe, not difficult, as you say, but very time consuming. It doesn't need the chocolate, but the addition makes it a wonderful dessert!
