Ingredients
Eggs 6 pcs.
100g caster sugar
Cake flour 60g
Cornstarch 15g
Milk 30g
Salad oil 20g
Method
Separate the eggs and place the yolks and whites in two separate bowls.
Add caster sugar to the egg yolk bowl and beat with a whisk until the color becomes lighter and the volume increases.
Add a few drops of white vinegar or lemon juice to the protein bowl and beat with a whisk until a large foam appears.
Add caster sugar in three portions, each beating until the whisk is lifted, and the egg whites pull out long sharp corners.
Add the egg yolk paste to the egg white paste in three portions and mix well.
Add the milk and salad oil and continue to stir well.
Sift the flour and cornstarch, add it to the egg batter in three portions, and mix well.
Pour the egg batter into an 8-inch baking dish, place in a preheated oven and bake at 180 degrees for 20 minutes.
Once baked, place the cake on a drying rack to cool.
Cut the cake into two layers horizontally, place one layer of cake on a table covered with plastic wrap, spread your favorite filling, and cover with another layer of cake.
Roll up the cake, wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
Once removed from the refrigerator, remove the cake from the plastic wrap and cut into small pieces before serving.
Tips:
When whipping the egg yolk paste, pay attention to whipping until the color becomes lighter and the volume becomes larger, but not overblown, otherwise the cake will be dry.
When beating the egg white, pay attention to beating until the whisk is lifted, the egg white can pull out long sharp corners, so that the beaten egg white will be stable enough and not easy to defoam.
The flour and cornstarch are sifted to make the egg batter more delicate.
Bake the oven at 180 degrees for 20 minutes, and adjust the baking time according to the actual situation of your own oven.
When it comes to spreading fillings, you can choose different fillings according to your preference, such as cream, chocolate, jam, etc.
When rolling eggs, be careful to move quickly, so that the cake will not fall apart.
By following the steps and tips above, you'll be able to easily make a delicious tiger skin roll cake at home.
