Crafting the Perfect Chiffon Cake
Ingredients for a Scrumptious 17cm Chiffon Cake
- 60g Egg Yolk
- 30g Caster Sugar
- 30cc Taihaku Sesame Oil
- 50cc Milk
- 80g Light Flour
- 1.5g Baking Powder
- 120g Egg White
- 40g Caster Sugar
Creating the Chiffon Cake Masterpiece
1. Flour and Sugar Symphony
- Sift soft flour and baking powder together, and cast the caster sugar through a coarse strainer.
2. Egg Yolk Elegance
- Mix 30g of caster sugar with egg yolks thoroughly until achieving a whitish consistency.
3. Oil-Milk Fusion
- Add Taihaku sesame oil and milk sequentially, blending well. Incorporate the flour-sugar mixture from step 1 and mix.
4. Meringue Marvel
- Whisk egg whites until light, then switch to a hand mixer. Gradually add 40g of caster sugar in three portions to create a supple and elastic meringue.
5. Perfect Fusion
- Add 1/4 of the meringue to step 3, mixing evenly with a whisk. Incorporate the remaining meringue in two parts, gently mixing with a rubber spatula, preserving the bubbles.
6. Bake to Perfection
- Pour the batter into the mold, shaking it to achieve an even distribution. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes until cracks slightly brown. Invert the cake immediately, using a bottle or similar object in the mold's hole for cooling.
