Faut-il conserver le panettone au réfrigérateur ?
Should panettone be kept in the fridge?
If you are here, you are likely wondering if panettone should be stored in the fridge. Well, no, panettone does not need to be kept in the fridge. But if it doesn’t need to be kept cold, that also means no refrigerated truck is required to transport it. As a result, today you can have a panettone delivered to your door without having to pay high shipping costs. We will tell you more about preserving panettone in this article.
Should panettone be kept in the fridge?
It is often thought that a moist, rich cake must be kept cold to avoid drying out or spoiling. But panettone is an exception! Thanks to a long, natural fermentation process, the crumb retains ideal moisture and a subtle aroma, as long as it is stored indoors.
Christophe Louie’s sourdough panettone-making method is inherited from an Italian tradition, allowing the panettone to remain tasty for several days. If you follow the storage instructions (keep it in its original packaging in a dry place), there is no need to keep it in the fridge.
Why can panettone be kept out of the fridge?
Now that you know panettone doesn’t need to be kept in the fridge, you may be wondering how it is possible for this product to retain its flavours outside of the fridge?
The secret lies in natural sourdough fermentation, a skill faithfully perpetuated by Christophe Louie in his Paris workshop. Artisanal panettone benefits from a longer, more gentle maturing process than industrial products. This in-depth ripening gives it a distinctive aroma and greater resistance to aging. Furthermore, its composition gives it a generous texture and a balanced moisture content. So, even when kept out of the fridge, panettone remains soft and easily digestible, preserving its unique flavour.
