Hey everyone, hope you are having an amazing day today. Today, we’re going to prepare a special dish, whole egg sponge cake (genoise). It is one of my favorites food recipes. For mine, I will make it a bit unique. This is gonna smell and look delicious.
Classic genoise can be flavorless and dry. If making chocolate genoise, sift flour and cocoa powder over egg yolk mixture (or just flour if making vanilla). Vigorously fold in with a large rubber spatula, running it down along bottom of bowl and lifting up through center and over the top as you rotate bowl.
Whole Egg Sponge Cake (Genoise) is one of the most well liked of current trending foods on earth. It is appreciated by millions every day. It’s simple, it is fast, it tastes delicious. Whole Egg Sponge Cake (Genoise) is something that I have loved my entire life. They’re fine and they look fantastic.
To begin with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have whole egg sponge cake (genoise) using 5 ingredients and 10 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Whole Egg Sponge Cake (Genoise):
- Make ready 3 m~l Egg
- Take 90 grams Granulated sugar
- Make ready 100 grams Cake flour
- Take 20 grams ☆Unsalted butter
- Make ready 30 grams ☆Milk
It also freezes well, so you can make it in advance and decorate later. Bring your eggs to room temperature before you start. Make sure you fold gently but check that there's no clumps of flour left. No chemical leavener, just air that is beaten into the eggs.
Steps to make Whole Egg Sponge Cake (Genoise):
- Line the cake tin with parchment paper. It will stick easily if you lightly coat the paper with vegetable oil.
- Place the eggs and granulated sugar into a bowl and place into a hot water bath, and warm up to about 40°C (a little more than body temperature). Remove from the hot water bath and stir to completely dissolve the sugar.
- Using the hot water from the hot water bath in Step 2, dissolve the ☆ ingredients and keep it warm as-is.
- Whip the batter from Step 2 using an electric mixer on high speed for 5 minutes. It's done once you can lift it up and it disappears after letting it drop. Then whip on low speed for 3 minutes to make it nice and smooth.
- Sift in the cake flour, write a "J" with the spatula about 30 times while mixing thoroughly. Turn the bowl to the left at the same time.
- Stir in the ☆ butter, and mix thoroughly about 40 times using the same "J" pattern as listed above. It's finished once it turns smooth and produces a glaze.
- Pour into the mold, and drop the mold from a height of about 10cm three times to remove the air. The batter that is sticking to the spatula will not swell up properly so don't add it in.
- Bake in an oven preheated to 160°C for approximately 30~35 minutes. It will plump up nicely.
- Drop the cake once from a height of about 20cm to prevent it from shrinking. Flip it upside down onto a rack, and let sit for 5 minutes to cool.
- Flip it upright, remove the paper from the sides, cover with a wet cloth, and let cool completely. Place into a plastic bag and let sit for 1/2~1 day.
Folding (stirring without deflating) is the biggest factor. I was somewhat disappointed with this cake. I am a very proficient baker but this was not what I had imagined genoise to be.
