Jiu-jitsu-like Cotton Cake
1.
Weigh the required raw materials
2.
Separate the white egg yolks, put 3 egg yolks and one whole egg white together (I left 1/3 of the egg white in the egg white)

10.

Tips:
1. The best way to bake cotton cake is to use water bath method. What is water bath method? Simply put, put hot water in the baking pan, put the baking pan on the bottom layer, and then put the grill on the middle and lower layer to fill the cake liquid Put the mold on the grill for baking, or you can directly put the mold on the baking tray filled with water to bake. This baking method is to avoid the loss of moisture in the cake.
2. To see if the bake is cooked, you can use a toothpick to insert the cake. After removing the toothpick, there is no residue on the toothpick, which means the cake has been cooked.
3. I didn't put all the egg whites of a whole egg in the egg yolk paste. Personally, I think it is a little too much to put them all in. Of course, you can put them all in and follow the instructions completely.
4. The egg yolk paste can be stirred in circles because the flour has lost its gluten after gelatinization. Even if it is not gelatinized flour, it will not cause gluten and affect the taste.
5. All the utensils used are oil-free and water-free containers. Putting plastic wrap on the air line will prevent the tragedy of the epidermis from being stuck.
