After seeing the lemon sponge cake recipe, let’s take a look at some tricks to make it perfect. The main trick is, as in all pastry making, to respect the measurements to the letter.
1 The pastry is pure chemistry, we cannot add the ingredients by eye, because it would not rise the dough, it would be too thick or too liquid… Therefore, it has to be an exact science, both the quantities and the times.
2 The eggs are the main ingredient of our dough, as they provide the necessary consistency, give the rich texture to the cake, and contribute to its moisture, preventing it from becoming excessively dry. Therefore, special care must be taken with them:
3 It is very important not to forget to add a pinch of salt, as we told you in the lemon cake recipe. This, in addition to helping the eggs to integrate well, will enhance the flavors of our cake much more.
4 And to finish, we go with the lemon zest. This should be applied to any citrus fruit whose zest is going to be used in a recipe. It must be very well cleaned. Once you have washed it very well, dry it with a cloth, and be very careful not to get to the white part of the fruit, because it will embitter our recipe.
