    Finally someone who cuts into an angel food cake!! Thank you. I have been having a hard time, now I realize I did not bake it long enough.

  • @memuka-
    @memuka- 8 лет назад +253

    that's some gorgeous looking cake! But is no one going to comment on the fact that the recipe calls for 14 egg whites??? 14, seriously?!

    • @russbear31
      @russbear31 8 лет назад +36

      Yes, 14 is kind of excessive, even for an angel food cake. Most angel food recipes I've seen call for 8 to 10 egg whites. This is the first recipe I've seen that calls for more than a dozen. BTW, 14 egg whites is the equivalent of 7 whole eggs. That's another baking trick if you want to cut fat or calories from a recipe: 2 egg whites = 1 whole egg. You can substitute that in almost any recipe.

    • @Evnaaa
      @Evnaaa 8 лет назад +3

      He said 14 large egg whites so is that equivalent to 10-12 extra large egg whites?

    • @Evnaaa
      @Evnaaa 8 лет назад +8

      ***** yeah i ended up measuring mine in cups hahah. Won't lie, i bought free run egg whites in a carton and my cake turned out okay! Just didn't want to make something else with the excess yolks

    • @szettner
      @szettner 7 лет назад +4

      If you cook bread puddings, they call for egg yolks (or at least more yolks than whites), but you can certainly do them all yolk. So what I do is save the whites after I make puddings. That way you don't waste anything. I assume there are limits to how long you can save the whites while they accumulate.
      I could be wrong, but I think also homemade mayonnaise is made with just the yolks as well.

    I'm going to attempt this with pasteurized egg whites (because I'm not a commercial concern, and have no idea what I'd do with 12 to 14 egg yolks). I'm also going to dye sections of the batter for July 4th.

    If you have fussy Kids who think they don't like Eggs - all those xtra Yolks make for some tender Custard ! My Mother used to bake us Custard when were were bed sick & they always made us feel better. With 5 Kids, Tray Service in Bed with a Warm Custard & the little silver flip top Pot with Tea felt super luxurious & very Special. I still use those little Brown Glazed Earthenware Cups, no longer reserved for Kids with Chicken Pox or Measles! Whenever I miss Mom, I whip up some Custard in her Memory, always accompanied with a Story about Grandmom when serving.

    this cake was always our birthday cake when we were young. We still have a similar pan in the house. my mom's recipe is different though. I understand now why hers was slightly runny, it's because of the batter, compared to yours which only uses cake flour folded into the egg white mixture.

    My grandma requested an Angel Food cake for her 84th birthday this year. I decided that it should be special and that I would make it from scratch. I've never made Angel Food from scratch before, but I followed this recipe and the cake was amazing. Super light, fluffy, and delicate. My grandma loved it. She and some other guests said it was the best Angel Food cake they've ever had. (We've previously only had store bought or box mix) Anyway, thank you for the awesome recipe and helpful video.

    • @cyapyap28
      @cyapyap28 8 лет назад

      Gwen Huynh yes, because unshortened cake (angel food cake) doesn't have any fats in it besides the eggs because if you bake them in the oven they grow on their own in the pan they need to hold on to the sides of the pan and if you use nonstick pans they wont be able to hold on cuz its too slippery for the cake batter. Results are having a small cake. Dont grease the pan too.
