Ingredients:


4 eggs
2 tablespoons of hot water
110 g of flour
40 g of cornstarch
120 g of sugar
1 pinch of salt
1 teaspoon of chemical yeast

Preparation:


1. To make the cake, separate the yolks and the whites. The yolks will be beaten with a couple of tablespoons of water and when they foam add 2/3 of the sugar and continue beating until a consistent cream is obtained.
2. On the other hand, we assemble the whites to the point of snow with a pinch of salt, when it is practically assembled the third of sugar that we have left will be added and we will finish assembling until forming peaks.
3. Pour 1/3 of the whites over the yolks and mix gently, with enveloping movements, then pour the remaining 2/3 thirds of whites and add the flour, cornstarch, yeast (previously mixed and sieved), mix gently with manual rods and with enveloping movements, from bottom to top, trying not to lower the batter.
4. as soon as the whole lot is properly mixed, pour it into a 26 cm spherical mildew (previously greased and floured), easy the surface and bake in a preheated oven at a hundred and eightyº for 20 mins.
five. We insert a needle inside the middle and if it comes out dry, we take it out of the oven and go away it in the mildew for five mins, then unmold and vicinity on a rack to cool.
6. once it's far bloodless, it is prepared to be divided into layers.
