Panina coll' Uva

Panina with raisins, this is a very traditional bread/cake... In facts, every bakery in Arezzo, the town where I live, produces a huge quantity of it during the whole Lent till Easter and sometime a little after... It is consumed with boiled eggs and salami at breakfast on the Easter Day.
It is made from a fresh yeast dough with the addition of soft raisins and typically ground saffron that gives the yellowish colour and a pinch of pepper ( I've liked to perfume with some macis from my cupboard ) and olive oil from our family production...I find the oil gives the Panina a lovely moisture and lightness better than lard that is mainly used...
 ...while raising...
