Cómo preparar Sponge Cake Portuguese Pao De Lo
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat 8 large eggs with a pinch of salt until light and frothy (about 5 minutes using a stand mixer).
- Gradually add 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, beating at medium speed for at least 20 minutes until the mixture is thick, pale yellow, and has tripled in volume. Add the zest of 1 lemon (optional) during the last 5 minutes of beating.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups cake flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
- With the mixer on low speed, gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, one heaping tablespoon at a time, ensuring each addition is fully incorporated before adding more. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. For a crisp top, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar over the batter before baking.
- Bake for approximately 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack. Carefully peel off the parchment paper.
- Let the cake cool completely on the rack.
- Dust with powdered sugar before serving (optional).
