Pumpkin chiffon cake
Overview
Last time I made a cranberry chiffon, because there was no lemon juice and it did not create an acidic environment for the egg whites, the chiffon was not very successful. It was indeed a crazy cake worthy of the name. However, I went to the supermarket with my mother yesterday afternoon and bought a bottle of white vinegar. Today I continued to challenge Qifeng. This time I was much more successful. The surface did not collapse. I am so happy~

Peel and seed the pumpkin, cut into thin slices and place in a bowl.

Take out the pumpkin, let it cool completely and crush it into puree with a spoon.

Add 3 egg yolks, corn oil, and vanilla essence, and stir evenly.

Sift in cake flour and cornstarch.

Stir into a smooth batter. (Pumpkin produces a lot of water, so add it according to the water production. Do not add milk or water. Mine has more water, so I didn’t add it.)

Beat the egg whites at low speed until rough peaks form.

Add the remaining sugar in two batches and beat until stiff peaks form.

Take one-third of the egg whites and put it into the pumpkin paste.
