Egg Foam Cake-Chiffon
3 Tablespoons of canola oil plus 1 teaspoon of canola oil.
3 egg yolks
1/3 cup of water
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups of cake flour sifted before measuring (I use all purpose).
1/3 cup of sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
1/4 teaspoon of salt
3 egg whites.
To start the chiffon cake, make a blend of egg yolks and oil. This mixture mimics mayonnaise.
Beat the egg yolks and gradually add the oil when combined, dilute with water and add vanilla extract.
Sift together flour, baking powder, add the salt and half the sugar, blend well in separate bowl.
Next make Meringue or egg white foam.
As you mix egg whites add remaining sugar one tablespoon at a time.
You want aeration in the egg whites, the sugar will help keep them from drying out.
I would suggest using mixer at this point.
Medium speed.
Blend egg yolk mixture with into dry ingredients.
Make sure evenly blended.
Next fold in meringue gently.
Pour batter into prepared pan.
I place a piece of parchment paper in the bottom of my Spring form pan.
In case it tries to stick.
Bake
Allow to cool at least 30 minutes before trying to remove from pan.
How to tell if it's done"
Lightly press on top of cake if it springs back it is probably done.
If you still aren't sure test with toothpick.
