Big angel food

Making:

Angel food cake

12 Servings

Here's what I have:


9 Egg whites
1 1/2 cup Sugar
1 cup Rice flour
1 1/4 tspCream of tartar
1 tsp Vanilla extract
1/4 tsp Almond extract
1/4 tsp Salt

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees with the rack on the lowest setting.

Most of the sugar and all of the flour were sifted together. 

The remaining sugar,  tar tar and salt were beat together with the egg whites until slightly frothy. The extracts were added and the eggs were beaten until soft peaks formed.

Next the rice flour and sugar combination were added in increments and mixed until all of the flour and sugar was folded into the egg whites.

And you lightly grease Pan the cake batter was added and placed in the oven for 35 minutes.

The cake!


I baked the cake in an 18in round pan. It came out pretty good and had a nice crumbly texture to it. However, I will be tweaking this recipe because it wasn't as light as I would like. So you said the 18in flat pan was a good choice here because the use of rice flour only meant it came out a bit more dense than traditional angel food. 


I made some whipped cream with less sugar and strawberries fot this which was a great combo. I'll be trying Round 2 of this soon with a chocolate version.

Bacon butter!

Making: Today I'll be making bacon butter. Whenever I make bacon I save the grease. Now that I have enough it will be turned into batches of bacon butter.  I used about 2.75 sticks of butter total. Cut into jars then I let them sit until the butter was close to room temperature.  The bacon fat I have collected (Stored in the refrigerator) was heated in bits over a double boiler until liquified but not too hot.  The melted bacon fat was poured over the butter. You can use a strainer to get rid of and chunky bits and then mixed until well incorporated. The smaller jars have just over 3 oz butter. The bigger jar has 4.3 oz butter.  Here are the finished jars. These will be stored in the fridge and used to cook veggies and sear meats. You could also put herbs in the jar for different flavors. - Kris
