A challenge to myself.

Here is the original recipe, which is perfect, without changing one iota.
If you start early in the morning, early afternoon in the oven.
The baba Adriano
Serves 12 to 13 molds (depending on the size of eggs) by 8cm high.
350g strong flour (I used a Manitoba found at the supermarket) 5 medium eggs
75gr butter 2 tablespoons sugar 15g fresh yeast
6gr
salt Dissolve yeast in 30g of warm water, add 25g of flour, cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise (temperature about 28 degrees).
After 30 mn. Put egg whites in bowl only (save the yolks in a glass, sealed with plastic, in refrigerator), break it with a whip in hand, without mounting, start the car at speed 1 and add slowly to rain much flour as necessary to obtain a soft dough that still clings to the sides of the bowl. Cover and let stand 30 minutes. Reboot the machine with the leaf, which in my mixer is made in the "A", the second order:
add the yeast and a sprinkling of flour.
When it starts to string and add egg yolk, absorption occurred, a sprinkling of flour. When it starts to pull, the rate increased slightly (1.5) and continue with an egg and flour until all (keep a last dusting of flour).
The second egg add the sugar, the third with the salt.
curvature, flipping the dough twice, will become very elastic (the wires will do), at this point add the butter just soft (not ointment), and let it slowly incorporating.
absorption together the last dusting of flour and strung by inverting two or three times, the dough will tend to move away from the bowl.
Mount the hook (the first in the photo), start the car at speeds up to 1.5 and then go stringing complete until a widening strip of dough you'll get the effect "Veil."
Cover the bowl, sealed with pelllicola and place at 28 °.
When will have more than tripled the volume (two or three hours) overturned on a floured table and given the folds of the second type , tightening the mixture well.
Now 60g portions of dough to mold h 8cm, wrap a ball rolled under the palm and place in well-buttered tins (but not floured), cover with foil and place warm.
When the dome will be released from the molds definitely bake at 180 degrees for 25 minutes cica.
In the meantime you have 1 liter of boiled water with 500g of sugar and the peel of a lemon (or orange if you like), uniteo 7 to 8 tablespoons dark rum (or more to taste ).
Soak in the syrup warmed baba hot but not boiling, squeeze lightly and gently and put on his feet, leaning with one another, with the dome down.
can polish them with a bit of apricot jelly mixed in syrup, but I did not do it.
preferably be consumed the next day, but are also excellent on the same day!
With the doses you get from 12 to 13 molds (depending on the size of eggs) by 8cm high.
We will be busy with the table of sweets for a party that we organize for the children. Of course we will see the result!
