Comment préparer Original Pound Cake From 1700's England

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, sift together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour and ½ teaspoon baking powder. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Stir in 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice and the zest of 1 lemon.
Pour batter into the prepared tube pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 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 to cool completely.
