Tips:
1. The cake with 8-inch formula needs to bake for 50 minutes, the baking time is just right, and the inside is fully cooked
2. The egg white and yellow are separated, and they must be beaten in an oil-free and water-free container.
3. Use a spatula to cut and mix well, otherwise the flour will become gluten and the cake will shrink.
4. The fresher the eggs, the better the egg whites will be beaten, so try to choose fresh eggs
5. The egg whites should not be too hard to beat. Once beaten, it will lose the elasticity of the tissue, and it will also cause the final retraction. So when you see the strong triangle tip, stop immediately. If there is a tuft of cotton wool on the beater head Just oversent
6. The size and power of each oven are different, so you still have to set the temperature and time according to the actual situation of your own oven
