    How to make an airy sponge cake for a cake? Prepare everything you need for this. Sift the flour through a sieve in advance to saturate it with oxygen. Thanks to this, the finished products become even more magnificent. Eggs I use category C1. Bring the water to a boil.

    It is convenient to use a detachable baking dish (18 cm) for baking. Cover the bottom of the mold with parchment and clamp it with the sides of the mold. Pour the prepared dough into the mold.

    Step 8.

    Bake the biscuit in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees, for 40-50 minutes. Be guided by your oven. Remove the finished biscuit from the mold by walking along the edges with a sharp knife. Cool it by turning it over periodically so that it does not become wet from below. To make a cake, a biscuit should be given a rest. Wrap the cooled biscuit with cling film and put it in the refrigerator overnight. In this form, it can be stored for 3-5 days.

    The biscuit turns out to be airy, soft and very tasty! Cook for your health!

When the top layer of baking is slightly browned, check it for readiness: pierce it with a wooden skewer in several places, if the skewer comes out dry, then the mold (or baking tray) can be taken out of the oven.

Be sure to wash the eggs before use, since even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.

Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use the useful information about the features of ovens !
