Sweet Casatiello

Preparation

1. STEP 1 OF 8

   First, you need to obtain some sourdough yeast, which is made by fermenting flour and water mixed together.

2. STEP 2 OF 8

   Mix the sourdough yeast with one egg and flour (about 100 g) to obtain a very light and soft dough, then let it rest in a bowl covered with a towel in a place protected from drafts for about two hours until the volume has doubled.

3. STEP 3 OF 8

   At this point, work the dough for a long time, adding ten eggs, flour, sugar, vanilla, raisins, the grated zest of a very fresh lemon, a small glass of limoncello, and a small glass of rum.

4. STEP 4 OF 8

   Beat and work the dough with a lot of energy, then break off pieces and place them in ring molds previously greased with butter and dusted with flour.

5. STEP 5 OF 8

   Make sure the dough covers only half the volume of the molds.

6. STEP 6 OF 8

   Let it rise in a warm place, covering the molds with a towel and a wool blanket for an entire night (about sixteen hours will be needed).

7. STEP 7 OF 8

   When the casatielli are swollen and light, lightly brush the surface with a beaten egg.

8. STEP 8 OF 8

   Bake them at moderate heat (180 degrees) and let them cook for about an hour.
