  • Fluffy Chiffon Cake

    Fluffy Chiffon Cake

    Table of Contents

    Ingredients

    For the Dough

      • Eggs: 5 pcs (weight without shell: 290-300 g)
      • Sugar: 150 g (about 3/4 cup)
      • Salt: a pinch
      • Butter: 50 g (melted)
      • Vanilla extract: 1 tsp (optional for flavor)
      • Starch: 30 g (about 1/4 cup)
      • Baking powder: 6 g (about 1.5 tsp)
      • Flour: 150 g (about 1 1/4 cups)

    For Baking

    • Baking dish: 20 cm round cake pan
    • Oven: Preheat to 170°C (340°F)

    Steps on How to Do It

    Step 1: Prepare the Baking Dish

      1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 170°C (340°F) so it can reach the right temperature while you prepare the batter.
    1. Prepare the cake pan: Grease the 20 cm round cake pan with a little butter or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking. If you’re using a non-stick pan, this step may be optional, but it’s always a good practice.

    Step 2: Prepare the Dough

      1. Separate the eggs: In a mixing bowl, separate the egg whites from the yolks. Place the egg whites in a clean, dry bowl (preferably metal or glass), and the yolks in a separate bowl.
      2. Mix the yolks: Add the sugar (150 g) and a pinch of salt to the egg yolks. Whisk until the mixture becomes light and creamy. This process usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
      1. Add melted butter: Pour in the melted butter (50 g) and vanilla extract (if using) into the yolk mixture. Mix well until fully combined.
      2. Combine dry ingredients: In another bowl, sift together the flour (150 g), starch (30 g), and baking powder (6 g). Gradually add this dry mixture to the egg yolk mixture. Mix until you achieve a smooth batter, but be careful not to overmix.
      3. Beat the egg whites: Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. This means that when you lift the beaters, the egg whites should form peaks that slightly bend over.
    1. Fold in the egg whites: Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the yolk batter. Use a spatula to fold them in slowly, being careful not to deflate the air bubbles. This is crucial for achieving the light, fluffy texture characteristic of chiffon cake.

    Step 3: Baking the Cake

      1. Transfer the batter: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
      2. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven. Bake at 170°C (340°F) for 40-50 minutes. The cake is done when it is golden brown on top, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
    1. Cool the cake: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven. Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then gently remove it from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

    Step 4: Serve and Enjoy

      1. Serve the cake: Once cooled, slice the chiffon cake into pieces. You can enjoy it plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or served with fresh fruit and whipped cream for a delightful dessert.
      2. Bon Appetit!: Take a moment to appreciate your creation. This chiffon cake is not only visually appealing but also deliciously fluffy and light.

  • Melt-in-Your-Mouth Chicken Recipe

    Melt-in-Your-Mouth Chicken Recipe

    Four skinless, boneless chicken breasts
    1 cup of sour cream or Greek yogurt
    Parmesan cheese, half a cup grated
    For a more decadent taste, add 1/4 cup of shredded Asiago cheese.
    1/8 teaspoon of garlic powder.
    3/4 teaspoon of paprika that has been smoked
    For a tangier kick, add 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard.
    1 teaspoon of freshly grated lemon zest (for a zesty, citrusy kick)
    fresh, chopped parsley, 1 tablespoon
    Add salt and pepper according to your preference.
    To brush the chicken, use 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
    For an optional crunch, you may add 1/2 cup of panko breadcrumbs.
    Here are the steps:

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Preheat a baking pan or line it with parchment paper and lightly oil it.

    To get the chicken ready, use paper towels to pat dry the breasts. Sprinkle smoked paprika, salt, and pepper on both sides. For better taste and browning, brush a little olive oil over each piece.

    To make the topping, mix together the Greek yogurt, Parmesan cheese, Asiago cheese, garlic powder, Dijon mustard, lemon zest, and half of the chopped parsley in a medium-sized bowl. Thoroughly blend all ingredients.

    Coat the Chicken: Divide the yogurt mixture among the chicken breasts and spread it out evenly. To add a crispy finish to the yogurt mixture, sprinkle panko breadcrumbs on top.

    Cook: Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake coated chicken breasts for 25 to 30 minutes, or until meat is opaque throughout and top is browned. Use a thin layer of aluminum foil to gently cover the dish if the topping is browning too rapidly.

    After taking the chicken out of the oven, let it aside for a few minutes to rest before garnishing. Serve with a garnish of the remaining chopped parsley.

    As a side dish, you may have roasted veggies, salad, or garlic mashed potatoes with the chicken.

    Notes: The dish’s signature taste characteristic is achieved by using Asiago cheese and lemon zest.

    For those who want a more textural topping, Panko breadcrumbs provide a delightful crunch.

    The mild sourness of the dijon mustard cuts through the cheesiness and acidity of the yogurt and cheese.

    The traditional “Melt-in-Your-Mouth Chicken” recipe is about to get a modern makeover.

    Total Preparation Time: 45-50 minutes

    3-4 medium-sized Russet potatoes, scrubbed clean
    2-3 tablespoons of olive oil
    1 teaspoon paprika (smoked or regular)
    1 teaspoon garlic powder
    1 teaspoon onion powder
    Sea salt to taste
    Black pepper to taste
    For the Smoky Chipotle Ketchup:

    1 cup ketchup
    1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, finely minced

    Directions:

    1. Prep the Potatoes:

    Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius). Cut the potatoes in half, then each half into quarters, aiming for 8 wedges per potato.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip the wedges and continue baking for another 10-15 minutes until they are golden and crispy.

    Cooking Tips:
    For extra crispy wedges, soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before drying and seasoning.
    Ensure the potato wedges are spread out on the baking sheet to allow for even cooking and crispiness.
    Use parchment paper instead of foil for easier cleanup and to prevent sticking.
    Nutritional Benefits:
    Potatoes are a good source of vitamins C and B6, potassium, and fiber.
    Baking instead of frying reduces the fat content, making these wedges a healthier option.
    The chipotle pepper adds a dose of capsaicin, which has anti-inflammatory properties.

    To make it vegan, ensure that the ketchup used is vegan-friendly.

  • Mocha Layer Cake with Chocolate Rum Cream Filling

    Mocha Layer Cake with Chocolate Rum Cream Filling

    Serves: 8+ people
    Ingredients:

    1 pack of tea biscuits
    125g softened butter
    125g dark chocolate spread
    60g sugar
    3 espresso shots
    1 egg
    Instructions:

    1. Prepare the Chocolate Buttercream:

    Begin by melting the dark chocolate spread and allowing it to cool slightly. While it cools, beat the softened butter together with the egg and sugar until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency. Gradually incorporate the melted chocolate into the butter mixture, stirring continuously. Once fully combined, the chocolate buttercream is ready for use.
    2. Assemble the Cake:

    To assemble, dip each tea biscuit into cold espresso, ensuring not to soak it for too long. Place the dipped biscuits side by side in a serving dish of your choice (as this dish will be used for presentation). After arranging the first layer of biscuits, spread a generous layer of chocolate buttercream on top. Use a knife to gently spread the buttercream, taking care not to break the biscuits.
    3. Layering:

    Continue alternating layers of espresso-soaked biscuits and chocolate buttercream until you run out of ingredients. Finish the cake by completely covering the top layer of biscuits with the remaining buttercream.
    4. Chill and Serve:

    Once the cake is fully assembled, cover it with aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 24 hours (48 hours is ideal for best results). Before serving, let the cake sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to soften slightly.
