Easter Tasting Kit # 1: Artisan Colomba made by Calciano & Chocolate egg bean to bar made by Angiolini
Calciano Colomba pear and chocolate
Wheat flour, candied pears, dark chocolate, butter, sugar, fresh egg yolks, sourdough, orange paste, malt honey, salt, natural Madagascar vanilla pods. The dove, as it should be.
Swollen, well leavened, authentic, even in shape. When cut it expresses a full aroma of pastry, yeast, candied fruit, vanilla, perceptible even to the naked eye.
The flavor is very precise: exactly what it is, in the common imagination. The inside is a beautiful bright yellow, studded with tasty candied fruit and the soft, elastic and supple dough is accompanied by perfectly balanced aromas.
Traditionally it has the stylized shape of the dove, a symbol of peace according to Christian culture.
Hours and hours of leavening give life to a soft, intensely fragrant dessert with a pleasantly persistent flavor.
Designed by Dino Villani in the 1930s, to take advantage of the same machinery and the same pasta as the Christmas panettone in the Easter period. Since then, the Easter dove has spread to the tables of all Italians, and even far beyond the borders of Italy. The original dough, made from flour, butter, eggs, sugar and candied orange peel, with a rich almond glaze, has subsequently taken on various shapes and variations.
Each product is made according to a totally artisanal tradition, free of semi-finished products and preservatives. And in the classic version, pear and chocolate, apricot and ginger and berries.
