- 2 3/4 oz Taggiasca olives
- 1 packet instant yeast for savory preparations (15 g)

Tools

Preparation of the Super Soft Savory Plumcake
Drain the sun-dried tomatoes well from their preserving oil and cut them into small pieces.
Cut the feta cheese into small cubes.
Roughly chop the Taggiasca olives.
Crack the eggs into a large bowl and lightly beat them with a small hand whisk.
Then add the flour by sifting it through a fine mesh sieve and blend it with the eggs, softening the mixture with the warm milk.
Pour in the oil and mix again, then add the grated cheese.
At this point, add the feta, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and salt, and mix everything well.
Finally, season with plenty of freshly ground black pepper and add the instant yeast for savory preparations, sifting it through a fine mesh sieve.
Pour the mixture into a loaf pan 11/12 inches long, previously greased and floured or lined with parchment paper. If you choose the latter option, you can find the full procedure by clicking HERE.
Bake the plumcake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for 45 minutes, covering it with a sheet of foil in the last 10 minutes of baking if it browns too much.
Remove it from the pan, let it cool slightly, and serve it sliced. I recommend enjoying it warm. Enjoy! Paola
