WHITE CHIFFON CAKE RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Let eggs stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt and baking soda. In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks, orange juice, oil and orange zest; add to dry ingredients. Beat until well blended. , In another large bowl and with clean beaters, beat egg whites and cream of tartar on high speed until stiff peaks form. Fold into orange mixture. , Gently spoon batter into an ungreased 10-in. tube pan. Cut through the batter with a knife to remove air pockets. Bake on the lowest rack at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until top springs back when lightly touched. Immediately invert pan; cool completely. Run a knife around sides and center tube of pan. Invert cake onto a serving plate. , For glaze, melt butter in a small saucepan; add remaining glaze ingredients. Stir until smooth. Pour over top of cake, allowing it to drizzle down sides.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 170°C. Separate the egg yolks and egg whites into two large mixing bowls.
• Whisk the egg yolks along with 20g sugar, flour, oil, milk, baking powder, and vanilla extract and set aside. Do not over-whisk.
• Using an electric whisk or stand mixer, whisk the egg whites until foamy, then whisk in the sugar in 3 small increments (20g at a time) and add the cream of tartar.
• Continue to whisk for about 10-15 mins until the mixture is light and airy. You can check if it is ready by turning the bowl upside down - if the mixture does not drip and stays in place then it is ready.
• Slowly fold the egg white mixture into the batter in small increments (about 3 times), and continue to cut and fold the mixture until it is fully combined. Do not over-mix.
• Grease the bottom of an 8-inch tube pan and pour the mixture in. Gently tap on the table a few times to ensure that it is evenly spread. Bake in the oven for about 40-50 mins, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
• If you are using an angel-food cake pan, place the pan upside-down on a wire rack. If you are using a chiffon cake pan, place the pan upside-down on a tall heavy bottle. Cooling the cake upside-down will help it stretch downwards instead of collapsing.
• Allow it to cool fully before removing it from the pan. To release the cake from the pan, gently use a knife to remove the cake from the sides.
