I have always wanted to learn to make cakes and bread, but I have bought the oven for a long time. It is mainly meat, and pasta is still my weakness. Recently, my daughter suddenly became interested in making cakes. Being infected by her, I was also eager to move. Small scales, egg beater, molds and other tools have been added. I found various information from the Internet and made Qi Feng cakes and sponge cakes. After several attempts and wasting a lot of eggs, I finally succeeded.
An ultra-simple sponge cake to share with you.

1. Nowadays, many supermarkets do not sell low-gluten flour. You can use high-gluten flour to add corn starch or corn starch at a ratio of 4:1 (high-gluten flour: starch);2. I have tried it several times but failed, mainly because of the control of oven temperature and time, the cake on the upper layer is burnt, and the cake on the lower layer is not yet ripe. The oven in everyone's home is different, so you need to find out the oven temperature and baking time yourself. If the upper layer temperature is too high, put a tin foil on it.
