Japanese cotton cake
Overview
It was my first time to make cotton cake, and I didn’t expect it to taste so soft. I cut it into half and gave it to my mother for breakfast. She said it was super soft and even better with jam!

Ingredients
Steps
-
Prepare four eggs at room temperature, separate three egg yolks from egg whites, and break the last egg into the egg yolk.
-
Corn oil was weighed.
-
Sift the low-gluten flour and weigh it.
-
Pour the corn oil into a small pot and heat it until it boils, then turn off the heat.
-
Quickly pour in the cake flour and stir evenly.
-
Pour in the milk and continue stirring.
-
Let cool slightly and pour in the egg yolks.
-
Blend until smooth. (Do not pour in the egg yolk while it is hot, otherwise it will burn into egg yolks.)
-
Add a few drops of lemon juice or white vinegar, and salt. (Lemon juice and salt are added to enhance the stability of the egg whites.)
-
Stir to create large foam.
-
Pour in one-third of the granulated sugar.
-
Continue stirring until the egg whites double in volume, then add half of the remaining sugar and continue stirring.
-
Beat for about a minute and pour in the final sugar.
-
Beat until wet peaks form, lift the egg beater, and the egg whites will form an inverted triangle with a small hook.
-
Put one-third of the egg white into the hot noodles.
-
Stir slowly, not stir, but stir evenly.
-
Add the egg yolk paste to the remaining egg whites.
-
Continue to stir evenly.
-
Pour into the mold and knock out big bubbles.
-
Preheat the oven, use the water bath method, put a plate of hot water under the oven, add the cake batter, and heat up and down to 160 degrees for 50 minutes.
-
After baking, unmold while hot and place on the grill to cool.
-
After it has cooled completely, it can be easily cut with a knife.
