-
Have all the materials ready. Egg whites and yolks are separated, and all utensils are water-free and oil-free.
-
First beat the egg whites. Turn the egg beater on high speed and beat the egg whites until coarse foam appears. Add half of the fine sugar.
-
Continue to beat at high speed until the egg whites form texture, then add the remaining sugar.
-
Use the egg beater to medium speed and beat the egg whites until they reach neutral peaks (lift the egg beater to form a sharp hook and bend it vertically and drop it).
-
Make egg yolk paste. Add a little vanilla extract to the egg yolks. Turn the mixer on high speed and beat until puffy, uniform and without any graininess.
-
Pour the formed egg yolk paste into the beaten egg whites.

Use a spatula (or egg whisk) to stir evenly from bottom to top.

Add half of the cake flour and cornstarch into the egg batter.

Mix evenly from bottom to top.
