Steps

  1. Prepare the ingredients, separate the egg whites and egg yolks (take 4 egg whites, 3 egg yolks), add 35g of fine sugar to the egg yolks, and beat with a whisk until foamy, then add water, salad oil, and lemon juice in turn and stir evenly. Sift low-gluten flour and cornstarch into the egg yolk paste, and mix with a whisk to form a uniform batter.

  2. Add 30g of fine sugar to the egg whites in two batches and beat until stiff peaks form. Lift the egg beater to form a sharp angle. Take one-third of the beaten egg whites, add it to the egg yolk batter and stir evenly. Then pour the mixed batter back into the remaining two-thirds of the egg whites and continue to stir until it becomes a fine paste

  3. Take a small amount of original batter and put it into a piping bag, cut a small slit at the sharp corner, trace a giraffe pattern on a baking sheet lined with greaseproof paper, and place it in a preheated oven at 150 degrees for 2 minutes. The oil paper must be brushed with oil so that the pattern will not stick away.

  6. Place in a preheated 150° oven, turn the heat up and down, and bake for about 20 minutes. Immediately turn the baked cake slice upside down on the drying rack to prevent it from shrinking. Tear off the oil paper while it is hot, and then cover it back. Otherwise, the surface will dry out and cracks will easily appear. This can prevent cracks from appearing when rolling, and it will easily break when rolling.
