Savoy Cake

Étapes

• Preheat the oven to 170°C (around 5/6 on the thermostat).
• Separate the egg whites from the yolks.
• Whisk the sugar with the yolks until the mixture becomes light in color.
• Gradually incorporate half of the flour/starch mixture into the yolks, mixing well each time.
• Add a pinch of salt to the egg whites. Whisk them until stiff peaks form.
• First, incorporate 2 tablespoons of the beaten egg whites into the mixture. Stir gently from bottom to top to avoid deflating the egg whites, using a wooden spoon.
• Once the mixture is homogeneous, add the rest of the batter to the remaining egg whites in one go, in the same manner.
• Gradually incorporate the second half of the flour/starch mixture into the batter, mixing well each time.
• Grease the pan and sprinkle with sugar. Pour the mixture into the pan and bake for 25 minutes.
