Easter dove. Colomba di pasqua

But this is the kind of cake they bake for Easter in Italy. This, of course, is not the only type of Easter baking in Italian cuisine (see, for example,), but definitely one of the most popular. Including the fact that the cake is baked in the shape of a dove, and is called accordingly - Easter dove or colomba di Pasqua. They even produce special forms for its preparation. The traditional recipe includes several stages of kneading and processing the dough, and is also incredibly high in calories. This is a whole enterprise to which you need to devote literally the whole day. And we offer lightweight technology. However, the taste of the cake is absolutely charming, and in terms of calories it is not so threatening. Well, you can give it a shape without a special template by spreading the dough on a baking sheet and making a dove figurine with your hands. It's very simple. You can check.Ingredients:
For optimal results, it is strongly recommended that you do not change the amount of ingredients or the technology described below.
- 300 ml milk
- 42 g fresh yeast
- 50 g sugar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 100 g softened butter
- 1 egg at room temperature
- grated zest of 1 lemon or small orange
- a pinch of salt
- 600 g flour
- 40 g almonds
- 100 g dried apricots
- 60 g of raisins, soaked for several hours in rum or cognac
- powdered sugar for dusting
Cooking method:
1. Heat the milk to 36-39 degrees. Crumble the yeast into it, add 1 tablespoon of sugar, stir, cover and place in a warm place to react for 15 minutes. A sign of readiness of the starter will be a foamy cap of a delicate cream color.
2. Pour the remaining sugar into a separate large bowl. Sift the flour there, add softened butter, beat in the egg, add grated lemon or orange zest, honey and salt. At the end, pour in the yeast starter and mix everything well. Then knead into a smooth dough. You don’t need to knead for a long time, just enough so that it stops sticking to your hands. Cover the bowl with the dough with a clean kitchen towel and leave in a warm place for 1 hour.
3. Pour boiling water over the almonds, let them stand for a couple of minutes, then drain and peel. After this, carefully cut each nucleolus into 2 halves.
4. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Finely chop the dried apricots. Drain the liquid from the soaked raisins. Two highlights will be put aside. Add the rest of the raisins along with dried apricots to the risen dough and knead a couple of times so that they are evenly distributed. Lightly dust the dough with flour and transfer to a baking tray lined with baking paper. Shape the dough into a dove shape. Also sculpt the wings and cut them. Lubricate them with water and lay out halves of almond kernels, imitating feathers. Stick two raisins on the sides of the bird's head. These will be the eyes
5. Bake the Easter cake for about 40 minutes. After the first 30 minutes, you may need to cover the top with foil to prevent the surface from browning too intensely. Remove the finished cake from the oven, let it cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

At Christmas and Easter, Italians bake almost identical types of pastries, only the form differs. During the Christmas holidays (Natale) in Italy they eat panettone cake, and in the spring they eat Easter colomba in the shape of a dove.

Colomba, unlike panettone, usually does not contain candied fruits and raisins, and instead of glaze, the top is sprinkled with sugar granules and nuts, but the filling and decor are a matter of taste.

Why do Italians bake dove for Easter?
This is a symbolic image. The dove (colomba) visually resembles the shape of the cross on which Jesus was crucified. In the biblical myth of the Flood, this bright bird brought an olive branch to Noah into the ark as a message about the pacification of the elements.
In addition, in Ancient Rome, the doves of Venus, the goddess of love, who built a nest on the helmet of Mars, the god of war, were considered symbols of love and peace.
I don’t have an olive branch, we don’t live in Tuscany, so I decorated my dove with a sprig of cherries.
Preparing colomba according to an authentic recipe requires the presence of natural yeast, which Alliance mommas and nonnas make their own. This process is long and energy-consuming. Given the wide range of industrial yeast available in supermarkets, I don’t see the point in struggling for days with natural yeast. I studied several recipes for dove, including my friend Else's, and decided on my version of a lightened-up Italian Easter dove.
“Lightweight” means only three stages of fermentation of the yeast dough, which in total take from three to five hours of keeping the dough in a warm place.

But don't let this scare you. Waiting and looking at your future colomba is the most difficult part of the recipe; the rest of the manipulations are fully automated by kitchen appliances. I hope you have a mixer, and the difficulties will not deter you. It’s worth a try, because in the end you will be rewarded with a fragrant, delicious Easter cake, which, without preservatives or any artificial improvers, retains its freshness and softness for weeks.
I'm sure that after making Colomba once, you will leave it as one of your favorite family recipes in your "home cookbook."
The dove deserves it, honestly!

Ingredients for two colombes (or Easter cakes) weighing 750 grams:

For the test:
. 30 gr. baker's pressed yeast (fresh) or a bag of dry (10-13 grams). There is no fundamental difference between the type of yeast; take those that are fresher in terms of expiration date. Do not use dry instant yeast - it is not suitable for us. That’s what it says on the bag - fast-acting dry. We do not buy them under any circumstances, since the colomba recipe is not intended for this type of dough.
. 255 gr. brown cane sugar, you won’t find what to do, take regular white
. 600 gr. bread flour as finely ground as possible. It’s good if you have the opportunity to use special Italian flour, a mixture “for cakes and desserts.”
. 170 ml. milk (60 ml for dough + 110 ml for kneading dough)
. 4 eggs
. 250 gr. butter
. 1 packet vanilla sugar
. zest of 1 lemon, zest of 1 orange
. 50 ml. fresh citrus juice (25 ml orange + 25 ml lemon)
. 50 gr. almond flour or finely ground almonds
. 1 tbsp. spoon of orange liqueurCointreau(Cointreau) or any sweet alcohol with a citrus or nutty flavor

For the glaze:
. 4 egg whites
. 100 gr. powdered sugar
. 1 packet vanilla sugar
. 50 gr. almonds
. 50 gr. hazelnuts
. 15 gr. starch
. 15 gr. flour

For decoration:
. almond flakes

. sugar granules

Cooking method

Pour 60 ml. milk in a cup, heat in the microwave to 37º. Let's try to make sure your finger doesn't get too hot. The milk should be pleasantly warm. Dissolve 5 grams of sugar and yeast in milk.

Let the yeast activate for 10-15 minutes, it should swell and rise into a lush “cap”. The structure of ready-to-use yeast resembles foamed egg white.
If you did everything as described, but the yeast behaved differently, try again. Heat the milk again, add sugar and new yeast. Let's see.
Yeast is a living product, so it can behave differently each time. Dough is not the case when you need to save money. If the yeast appears in small bubbles, it is ready to use.

Pour them into a mixer, add 100 grams of flour. Mix the dough. We form a ball out of it.

Place the bun in a bowl and cover with cling film.
Heat the oven to 80-100 degrees. Turn it off. Don't forget to turn it off!
Open the door, place a wooden cutting board on it, a towel on the board, and a bowl of dough on the towel. We forget for half an hour.
During this time, the dough should double in size; you will notice that the process has begun when the film is inflated into a spherical shape.

Transfer the warm, ready-made dough into a mixer, and at the same time add half of the ingredients for the colomba.
In this sequence:

Opara

400 gr. flour

250 gr. Sahara

125 gr. softened butter

2 eggs

110 ml. warm milk

Zest of one lemon and one orange.

Knead the dough in a mixer, first at low, then at medium speed until smooth.

This is what the dough should look like. Not liquid and not dense.

Cover it again with film. I no longer transferred the dough to a separate bowl; to save time and my effort, it further settled in the mixing bowl. Make sure your bowl is large enough.
Let the dough rest in a warm, turned off oven for an hour or an hour and a half. I can't say for sure how long it will take for your dough to triple in size. This depends on the temperature inside the oven and the “viability” of the yeast. If you don't have an oven, keep the dough in a warm place for about 3 hours. Look at him.
But! This is what it says in Italian books. I didn’t stand for three hours, the process went much faster for me.

After you are sure that the dough has tripled, add the second part of the ingredients to it: 100 gr. flour, 2 eggs, 125 gr. oils, vanillin, liqueur, citrus juice, almond flour.
Mix according to the same principle: first slowly, then quickly.

Almost finished colomba. This is not your great-grandmother's cake, don't put your hands in it. The dough may seem runny, but please do not add more flour.

Colomba will be baked, don’t even doubt it. And with a lot of flour it may not turn out so airy and all the charm of this baking will disappear.

We prepare the forms. I knew in advance that I would be baking Colomba for Easter, so I bought silicone molds in the shape of doves in America.
By the way, if anyone doesn’t know, I’ll tell you how to check your silicone mold for quality:turn it inside out; the silicone should not change color where it is turned inside out. If white or other colored stripes do not appear, your form is not toxic.
You can bake dove in any other form. Those who like to get smart can come to my blog and tell me what I’m doing wrong here, and you can experiment with Columba at home as your heart desires))


Fill the molds one-third full with dough. Use a silicone spatula or spatula, you don’t need to get your hands dirty, the dough is quite sticky.

We laid it out and transferred it to the stove, above the oven, which is already heating up for baking the doves.
The dough should stand for another hour and rise in the molds.

Preparing the glaze.
Grind the nuts in a blender.

Pour into a mixer bowl. Add 15 gr. starch and flour, 4 egg whites, vanilla sugar, 100 gr. powdered sugar and beat at high speed.

You can divide the whipped mass in half and add a spoonful of cocoa or hot chocolate powder to one part.
This way you will get two types of glaze - vanilla and chocolate.

Carefully, trying not to disturb the dough, which is still “working”, spread a tablespoon of glaze onto the dough. Sprinkle with sugar sprinkles.

And on top - almond flakes. You can use other nuts, but it tastes best with almonds in this form!

I had a lot of dough left, I put it in all the molds in the house.


After you've filled the colomba with glaze and sprinkles, keep the dough in a warm place for another 40 minutes.
The dough rested in the mold for twenty minutes before pouring the glaze, and the dough should sit with the glaze for forty minutes. Don't get confused)
The dough that has risen and is ready for baking should occupy two-thirds of the pan. Some housewives fill the molds halfway with dough, with the expectation that the dough will rise flush with the mold by the time of baking, but then the colombes or Easter cakes rise even more during baking and crawl out of the mold. I do not like it this way. The shapeless mass then definitely doesn’t look like a dove.
The most crucial moment is coming.
Preheat the oven to 160ºC.

Place the baking sheet in the middle, and if you doubt the quality of the molds and the capabilities of the oven, place a bowl of water under the baking sheet - it will protect the colomba from burning.
Baking time for large pans is 50-60 minutes, for small pans 40 minutes.
We check the readiness of the colomba with a wooden stick. If there is no stick, and the almond flakes are already browned, you can turn off the oven.
Let's take out the Columba. If you have a silicone mold, let the dove cool completely in it, then remove it from the non-stick mold while still warm. Of course, you don’t need to take them out of paper ones.

Sprinkle the dove with powdered sugar. Let's decorate.
I apologize in advance for this herbarium, the poet’s soul couldn’t stand it, but it’s so beautiful in my kindergarten now!

And this is what a dove looks like in cross-section. It smells like orange and nuts, the softest dough with thousands of small bubbles (an indicator of the quality of baked goods), the protein glaze and almonds crunch pleasantly on the teeth. We follow traditions and enjoy gourmet food.

Made from yeast dough with sugar, butter, chicken yolks and candied lemon or orange peel, sprinkled with almonds and sugar or crystallized sugar, even before baking.

The taste of colomba is similar to Easter cakes in Orthodoxy. Most often, Colombe is baked in heat-resistant paper. The baking shape must be cross-shaped with rounded corners, reminiscent of a dove. Sometimes the pigeon is so large that its wings can reach up to 50 centimeters in length.

The Easter dove is decorated and given to relatives and friends as a symbol of Great Easter and divine blessing. The roots of the origin of baked goods in the shape of a dove go far into the past. Legend has it that during the Battle of Legnano in 1176, 2 doves were supposed to fly and land among the Milanese troops - this meant “A promise of divine help to the Lombard League.” In memory of this divine event, every year in Milan 2 doves are released into the sky.

The Easter dove is common throughout Europe and is an addition to festive baking at Christmas. For Catholic Easter I prepared Colomba, and together with my son we made a baking dish. In this recipe, I also shared recommendations for making the mold. Now let's move on to Colombe. Happy holidays of the Great Resurrection to you!

How to prepare a recipe for colomb: Easter dove or Easter cake in Italian:

19) Grease the sides of the mold with oil or line with baking paper. It turns out even better with paper; there are no dough residues left on the pan when you remove the Colomba. Place the dough in the mold. Cover and let the dough rise for another 1 hour or more; the longer, the fluffier it will be. I put it in a warm place. And my Colomba lasted 2.5 hours. Then use a knife to make notches on the dough in the areas of the wings and tail. Lubricate the surface with protein. Sprinkle generously with sugar and almonds. Stick raisins in the place of the eyes, decorate with almond halves on the tail and wings. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C on the middle shelf for about 35-40 minutes. If the top is browner than you would like, cover with foil.

Translation of Olya's recipe (eliabe)

Adriano's Easter Dove - La colomba di Adriano Continisio

Necessary:
Strong flour 1100 gr
Sugar 400 gr
Butter 450 gr
Fresh yeast 14.5 g
Acacia honey 130 gr
Yolks 8
Eggs 2
Salt 12gr
White chocolate 100 gr
Milk 25 gr
Zest of 2 tangerines
Zest of 1 orange
Natural vanilla extract 1 tsp.
Candied orange peels 300 gr
Water 420 g approximately.

1 day. 12 hours.

Thick dough or biga:
mix 150 grams of flour,
70 grams of water,
1.5 g yeast,
Do not knead for a long time, let ripen at a temperature of 18° until the next. morning.

20 hours:
liquid dough.
150 grams of water,
75 grams of flour,
5 grams of yeast,
zest of 1 tangerine,
put in the refrigerator (temperature 5°).

Day 2.
8 a.m., 1° knead dough
Remove the liquid dough from the refrigerator.
In a separate bowl mix:
8 grams of yeast,
30 grams of warm water,
30 g flour
Leave for 30 minutes.

When it rises (after about 30 minutes) put it there:
200 grams of water,
150 grams of sugar,
200 g flour
Knead the dough (Kenwood mixer, speed 1).

When kneading, add in:
liquid dough,
100 g flour
dense dough

Knead until the dough comes away from the bowl and becomes shiny and homogeneous.

I have something like this.
Will add
4 yolks one at a time,
1 egg,
150 g sugar
320 rubles of flour,
Proceeding like this:
1 yolk, 50gr sugar, tbsp flour, knead until smooth (Kenwood speed 1.5, slowly bring to 2 and return to original speed when the dough forms a ball at the hook).

There was a lot of dough, so it was difficult to form a “ball”)))

The dough at this stage should be very well kneaded! Success depends on this.

My Kenwood took a long time to knead. The poor guy got hot, I was very worried about him.

Slowly stir in 300 grams of soft butter, piece by piece, and mix well again.
I kneaded for about 30 minutes total.
I kneaded longer. Probably, the butter was added in larger pieces than required or the flour was not as strong as Italian flour.

Leave to ferment at 30-35° until it triples in volume.

Everything went up great. It is noticeable how the dough has grown from the mark.

13 hours,(from the very beginning I did it according to my schedule)
2nd batch dough

Dissolve in a steam bath, not hot, but slightly warm:
white chocolate, 100 (added cocoa butter)
milk 25 g
stir in salt 12 g
and citrus zest (it must first be crushed into a paste in a coffee grinder or chopper with 1 tablespoon of sugar).

Place the dough back into the mixer bowl and add:
egg 1 piece
remaining yolks (same technology as before), 4 pcs.
honey 130 gr
remaining sugar 100
remaining flour 225

When the dough is perfectly kneaded (it becomes smooth, shiny, homogeneous, begins to form a ball at the hook, lags behind the dishes when kneading, if you tear off a small piece, it can be stretched into a thin, mica-like window), add the chocolate-milk mixture and vanilla.

Photo from another recipe, but here it worked best to show this “window”

Increase speed and mix well again.
Finally, slowly stir in the remaining butter.
At low speed, stir in the floured candied orange peel.

Let it ferment for 1 hour.
Divide into 9 pieces (6 small and 3 double-sized).
Lay out each piece of dough into a flat cake and carefully fold the ends into the center (you will get a ball lying on the smooth side), turn over and let rest for 15 minutes.
Form 3 doves and place in molds.
I didn’t find dove molds, I have simple paper molds for Easter cakes for 500 g. test and 200.

Cover with film and let stand at a temperature of 35.
The temperature was 24, proofing took much longer.

Bake at 180 for about 40 minutes for each dove. Oven in the lower part of the oven.

These are my lovebirds!
It was very difficult to thread the knitting needles after baking and hang them to cool.
They turned out to be very tender!)))

Interesting video.
Doves made with sourdough and yeast.

Here's how to make a mold for a dove.

Grazie Vittorio!
