📌 Our casatiello recipe includes two doughs. Start by mixing half the flour (250gr) with the natural yeast (we prefer natural yeast to brewer's yeast for this preparation) and add half the butter available (75gr).
📌 At this point , knead well until you have obtained a fairly soft dough, but not too much and add a pinch of sugar to help the leavening.
📌 Let it rise for 5-6 hours.
📌 For the second dough, add the other half of the flour (250g) and the butter available (75g )

📌 Roll out the dough on the table and add your favorite diced cured meats, but we recommend the Neapolitan salami (spicy and normal ).
📌 At this point, roll up and create a donut, with the eggs in the center raw.
📌 Cook in a ventilated oven at 140 degrees, for approximately 30 minutes.
📌 Bake from the oven... enjoy your meal and... Happy Easter!
