ヨーグルトケーキの味は好きなのですが、とうしてもずっしり重い焼き上がりになりがちです。人によっては乾燥ココナツを混ぜ込んでフワフワ感を出すようですが、あのガサガサしたココナツの喉越しが気になるので、何とか材料の調整によってできないか何度も工夫しました。
I love the taste of yogurt cakes, but they tend to be stodgy. Some people add desiccated coconut flakes into the recipe in order to make it fluffy. However, I am not fond of the roughage passing through my throat. So, I have been tweaking with my recipe and, today, I nailed it.
材料は:3全卵、150g砂糖、170g自家製ヨーグルト、230g薄力粉、8gベーキングパウダー、3g塩、60gグレープシードオイル、バニラオイル少々
180℃に余熱(必須)したオーブンで45分焼いて出来上がり。
Ingredients: 3 whole eggs, 150g sugar, 170g home-made yogurt, 230g cake flour, 8g baking powder, 3g salt, 60g grape seed oil, vanila oil
Bake at 180℃ in a pre-heated oven for 45 minutes.
When the cake was completely cold, I coated it first with syrup, and then with icing. I use this powder sugar which is meant for sugar craft. If you use regular icing power, you can taste the grains of corn starch, just as you do with custard cream. With this powder sugar, it is not only smooth, but also it remains creamy even next day, instead of hardening.
Using milk as the moisturiser for the powder sugar, I coated the whole cake with the syrup, which would prevent the cake from drying.
次に水分を控えてクリーム状に練る。「水分」には牛乳を使いました。飾りはミントの新芽。
Then I made creamy paste with less milk. To garnish, I placed fresh buds from my mint bush.
このクリームっぽさを出すのもシューガーペーストだと簡単。
