Excerpt from the introduction:
«Αναρωτιέμαι συχνά που είναι το απόγειο της μαγειρικής. Είναι τα πιο φρέσκα υλικά, οι πιο πολύπλοκες γεύσεις είναι το καθημερινό ή το σπάνιο; Δεν είναι τίποτε απ΄όλα αυτά. Το απόγειο δεν είναι ούτε η κατανάλωση του φαγητού ούτε το μαγείρεμα, αλλά η προσφορά του φαγητού και η συντροφικότητα…»

Ingredients (~12 bread sticks)
| In the drum of a fixed mixer, add the flour, butter cut into pieces, yeast, icing sugar, milk, eggs and orange zest and beat for 8'-10'. | We use the hook for yeasts to beat the mixture of the pie. Gradually add the syrup, it will facilitate the beating. |
Cease operation of the mixer and add the dried fruit and nuts. | Stir with wooden spoon. | Grease a deep and round form with Ø22cm-24cm (Ø8.7-9.4in) and invest with greaseproof paper, which goes beyond the edge of the form in 5cm-6cm (2in-2.4in). Grease the wax paper. Wrap a coin with foil and place it in the base of the form thus not risking for someone to bite it or to swallow it. |
Pour into the form the mixture of pie. Flatten with the spatula surface. Cover with a towel and leave it somewhere warm for ~1h:30' or until it swells. | When it swells (While the dough is proofing) you brush it with a beaten egg and scribe with a sharp knife a cross. Sprinkle with sugar pearls or almond net. | Bake in preheated oven at 170℃ (338℉, Gas:3.5) with resistance up and down ~1h:30' or until it is ready. Dip in the center of a stick-straw comes out dry. Remove from the oven and rest it on a base wire to cool. After 10 minutes remove the form and the paper to cool down completely. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and we write the year with jelly bean. |
Dried fruits and nuts, which are proposed in the recipe if you want put them, they are not necessary or use whatever you like to. Your own choice.
