Foolproof Rice Flour and Soy Milk Chiffon Cake
- 130 grams Rice flour (or joshinko)
- 6 Egg yolks
- 6 Egg whites
- 80 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 ml Canola oil (or vegetable oil)
- 120 ml Soy milk (or milk)
- Use well-chilled eggs.
- In a large bowl, separate the yolks from the egg whites, and return the egg whites to the refrigerator.
- Add 1/2 the amount of sugar, and mix until the consistency resembles mayonnaise.
- Add soy milk to the egg yolk mixture from Step 2, then add oil, and mix well.
- Add rice flour to mixture from Step 3, and mix well, then preheat oven to 320F/160C.
- Add the remaining sugar to the egg whites in 2-3 batches, and whisk until stiff peaks form (add a small amount of sugar at first, then add the rest as you go).
- Lightly mix 1/3 of the whipped egg white mixture from Step 5 to the mixture from Step 4, then gently fold in the rest with a wooden spatula.
- Add the remaining meringue to batter from Step 6, and using a rubber spatula, stir as if scooping up the batter from the bottom and folding it over.
- Pour batter into a chiffon cake mold, even out the surface, and tap the mold lightly on the counter to release the air pockets from the batter.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes in oven at 320F/160C.
- Once it's done, test with a skewer and if it comes out clean, turn the mold upside down over a casserole dish and allow to cool.
- Once the cake cools down, go along the sides with a knife, and loosen the cake from the mold.
- Serve the cake as is, or with whipped cream or your choice of fruit.
