  • 1 drop Vanilla extract

Method

  • Prepare 5 containers.
  • Prepare 2 small clean bowls that have no moisture or oil (for egg yolk and for egg whites).
  • Bowl 3: sugar and cornstarch.
  • Bowl 4: sugar.
  • Bowl 5: flour.
  • Preheat the oven to 170C.
  • Put barely a pinch of salt into the bowl with the egg whites and whip.
  • Add sugar and cornstarch to the egg whites in 2 batches and beat.
  • Use a hand mixer on high speed.
  • Tilt the bowl but don't let the contents spill out.
  • Using the same unwashed hand mixer, beat the egg yolk until foamy.
  • Midway through, add 10 g of sugar and beat until thickened.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of water and 1 tablespoon of oil and beat together with a hand mixer on high.
  • Sift 20 g of flour into the mixture from Step 3 and mix until smooth.
  • First beat with a hand mixer, then switch to a rubber spatula to get the flour and batter off the edges and bring it all together neatly.
  • Add 1/3 of the meringue made in Step 2 to the bowl from Step 4 and beat on high with a hand mixer.
  • When it has been mixed together, transfer the contents (using a rubber spatula) to the bowl from Step 2 and mix together by gently scooping from the bottom, being careful not to break the foam.
  • Mix evenly and add vanilla extract.
  • Without greasing the mini chiffon mold, pour in the batter slowly so that it creeps to the sides.
  • Don't add the batter that sticks to the sides.
  • Right after pouring into the mold, and bake in the oven for 25 minutes at 170C.
  • After it has baked, drop it on the counter from a height of 30 cm to prevent shrinkage.
  • When it has cooled slightly, cover completely with a plastic bag and refrigerate until chilled and moist.
  • Once it has cooled completely, push the cake gently with your fingers, gently push up from the bottom and remove the cake from the mold.
  • Use a butter knife if it won't come out.
  • Sprinkle powdered sugar, top with strawberries or berries and you have finished a cute decorated cake It's tiny and fluffy and yummy.
