Chiba Golden Cake
Overview
When making cakes, blanching the dough will gelatinize the starch in the flour, absorb more water, and make the finished product softer and more delicious. The texture of the cake is very dense, not as soft as chiffon cake, and lighter than sponge cake. There are plenty of eggs, and butter is used to scald the dough, which makes this cake taste extraordinarily rich. This is why there is really no need to add creamy fruits, etc. It is very suitable for empty mouth tasting. Just use one egg yolk to achieve the elegant presentation of this cake! Let’s share how to use simple lines to create a beautiful Chiba pattern.
