Regal panettone has long been synonymous with the holidays in Italy, yet the golden-domed breads weren't on the radar in the U.S. until the past few years.Before that, for most Americans, panettone was often misunderstood as a cousin to shunned holiday fruitcakes.Originally from Milan - though there are multiple variations across Italy today - panettone is notoriously difficult to make, requiring a combination of a complex starter and laborious dough work; ingredients such as candied fruit along with raisins and vanilla; and enough eggs and butter that, once baked, the sweet breads need to be inverted as they cool so they don't collapse.
