Swiss Roll Cake with Snow-White Swirls
- 3 Egg whites (large)

- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 20 grams Sugar
- 35 grams Plain flour
- 2 or 3 drops Vanilla extract
- 100 ml Whipping cream (or heavy cream)
- 1 tbsp Sugar
- When you whisk the egg whites, the temperature should be about 10C.
- Remove the eggs from the fridge just before starting to whisk.
- Pre-heat oven to 160C.
- Whisk the egg whites along with with cornstarch until frothy.
- Add the sugar in 2 batches and continue to beat until stiff peaks form.
- For the last 1 to 2 minutes turn down the speed of hand mixer to low and whisk to even the texture.
- Mix the vegetable oil and sugar and stir in the milk.
- Sift the flour into there and whisk well.
- Add 1/3 of meringue into the milk and oil mixture from Step 4 and stir lightly by carrying the mixture up from the bottom to the surface.
- Add another 1/3 of meringue and stir like you did before.
- Add Step 5 into the rest of meringue and stir lightly by carrying the mixture from the bottom to the surface (but you have to combine evenly).
- Add a few drops of vanilla extract and stir quickly.
- Pour the batter onto a baking sheet lined with baking parchment and bake in the oven pre-heated to 160C for about 12 to 13 minutes.
- (if possible place another sheet of paper under the baking parchment and the finished sponge will look pale and white.)
- This is the result.
- Whip the cream until stiff with sugar.
- After the sponge has cooled spread the whipped cream on top of the sponge and roll.
- Chill in the fridge.
- For the leftover egg yolks: Mix with mentsuyu noodle sauce, shiso leaves and garlic-flavoured soy sauce and leave to sit overnight.
- Serve with piping hot cooked rice.
- It's so tasty!
