Lievito madre / pasta madre (Italian sourdough)lievito madre
Lievito madre is a firm wheat dough full of lactic acid bacteria and yeasts, kept alive by regular refreshments with flour and water. Between refreshments it is tied in cloth or kept under water. Italian law requires it for panettone, pandoro and colomba. Made in 6 steps over 27 h – 40 h. The longest step, make the first dough (panettone), takes 18 h (De Vero L 2021) and runs at 20–22 °C (De Vero L 2021). Fructilactobacillus sanfranciscensis and Kazachstania humilis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae do most of the fermenting.
Amounts from a sourceOne refreshment from a Swiss bakery training recipe: equal weights of madre and flour, with water at 60 % of the flour. To start a new madre, the same recipe mixes 1,200 g of flour with 450 g of water and 300 g of fruit juice, yeast water or raisin water.

What makes this one different
Lievito madre is a firm wheat sourdough, refreshed often and kept warm, so it stays mild and full of yeast for rich sweet doughs. Italian law reserves the names panettone, pandoro and colomba for cakes raised by natural sourdough; baker's yeast may be added only up to 1 % of the dough.
A 2005 Italian ministerial decree defines panettone, pandoro and colomba as cakes made by natural fermentation of sourdough, with "lievito naturale costituito da pasta acida" among their ingredients.
