1.
Put the egg whites into a few drops of lemon juice or white vinegar.
2.
After beating with a whisk until it looks like a fish-eye bubble, add fine sugar three times to beat until wet foaming (lift the whisk, with curved corners). (For the skill of egg whites, please refer to: Spinach Cake Video Steps)
3.
After mixing low-gluten flour and cornstarch through a sieve, pour it into the egg whites. (Adding cornstarch can make the cake more stable, without or without adding it)
4.
Use a spatula to gently mix the flour and egg whites. When stirring, use a rubber spatula to stir up from the bottom. Do not stir in circular motions to avoid the flour becoming gluten.
5.
Pour the cake batter into the mold, smooth it, hold the mold with your hands and shake it twice to shake out the big bubbles. Then put it in the preheated oven, pour it into a 6-inch cake mold, and bake at 165 degrees for 25 minutes. Cut its plain surface and experience its pure white heart:)
Tips:
Angel cake does not contain oil, it is a kind of very tough cake, not easy to shrink, and rich in elasticity. After being out of the furnace, it is not easy to retract even if it does not cool down. In addition, because it has toughness, it is not as easy to break as a chiffon cake, so it is very easy to demould, even if you toss it a few times, it will not damage the integrity of the appearance.
Because the taste of cakes with too high toughness is not particularly soft, therefore, in the recipe of angel cakes, the cake should be made as soft and bulky as possible. In this formula, on the basis of low-gluten flour, a part of corn starch is added, which helps reduce the toughness of the flour, making the cake more bulky, larger in volume and better in taste. However, corn starch should not be added too much, and the amount in the formula is appropriate.
To make angel cakes, the egg whites do not need to be beaten to dry foaming like chiffon cakes, but only to wet foaming.
