Original chiffon cake

Overview

Before making a cake, please understand: Wet foaming: When you pull up the egg beater, it will be elastic and stand upright but the tail end will be slightly bent. Neutral foaming: The egg whites are more solidified and the cone is straighter, but still always drooping. Dry foaming or hard foaming: When the egg beater is pulled up, it is elastic and the tail end is straight. Qifeng, no matter how many different recipes there are, as long as the proportion of ingredients is balanced and appropriate. Whipping the egg whites is very important here; the technique of stirring the batter must be quick and proper; there is also the adjustment of the oven temperature and the selection of flour. Once you master these steps, you can basically avoid getting mad or going crazy (of course, slight cracking and shrinkage are not a big problem). Everything is progressing through learning.
