    I will probably never make half of these conundrum recipes, but I love all the tips and instructions. Thomas does a perfect job of teaching, and making complex things simpler and more straightforward. I think I've become a better cook because of this series. 👍

      Actually, the formula is to remove two tablespoons from one cup of all-purpose flour and replace them with two tablespoons of cornstarch to yield the equivalent of one cup of cake flour.

  • @rikich15
    @rikich15 Před 5 lety

    I find the results to be better if you alternate the addition of egg whites and flour in three times (add 1/3 of whites, fold. Add 1/3 of flour, fold, then add 1/3 of flour and 1/3 of egg whites, fold, and finish with the remaining thirds the same way ). To me, it's easier to fold this way without the risk of deflating the batter. And also for the baking part, I find the best result is achieved by baking with the oven door slightly open (like an open valve in professional ovens) from the beginning, especially if your goal is to get something slightly drier to then soak with syrup or coffee (for tiramisù),

    Hi this cake was tasting good. But when i baked it for 30 minutes it was under cooked. And i baked it again for 20 minutes and it was still not fluffy like when i touch it it leaves my finger print.finally I ended up baking it for like a hour and the top of the cake was hardened but the spongy side was like a dough texture.I could roll the cake. It was like undercooked in the bottom of the cake ,but the top of the cake was hard like a rock. I dont know what i’m doing wrong. I follow the recipie exactly and when it comes to baking it mess up everytime.
    Is it something i do when making the batter. it was a bit liquidy.does it has to be stiff?
    Can someone explain to me why? I’m just beginner having youtube only as my guide?, any advice on how to improve is appreciated.
