hi, sorry that I couldn't find the cake thread someone mentioned b4.
I tried to make simple sponge cake these days, already done 3 times, still failed.
I followed the egg yolk/ egg white recipe, from gretta anna famous orange book. It handles them separately. I already cleaned the utensils and made sure no egg yolk in the egg white.
Problem came, probably from the sieved plain flour. The recipe said to sieve the plain flour onto the egg white mixutre, folding in carefully in, but DON't stir and mix!
I followed and made the ugliest and a cake with the plain flour still on the cake after bake !
Should I stir and mix the plain flour lightly?
Please help.
I want a beautiful and sponge cake. THanks
