But this Passion Fruit Ogura Cake is one of my most successful products so far in term of the texture. The only complaint I have is my itchy hands sprinkle the passion fruit on the top layer of the batter before going into the oven that resulted with so many ugly 'tahi lalat " (mole) on the surface of the cake. That made the cake looked cracked but it was not. Otherwise I will have a perfect smooth looking Ogura Cake. Sign....

ReplyDeleteHI Christine,
ReplyDeleteCan I ask how do you get passion fruit juice? U blend the passion fruit pulp with seeds? Pls advise. Thanks.
Yvonne
Hi Yvonne, as for the passion juice, i go by the easy way that is measuring the fresh, juice and seeds together to get the 40gm lo.... hehe
DeleteQuestion, Christine! So when you make ogura cakes, you only beat the egg whites to soft peak? A lot of others are beating it until close to stiff peak. I wonder if that is the reason why my cakes sink a lot everytime I bake ogura ='( I was taught to beat the egg whites to close to stiff peak all this time.
ReplyDeleteCherish, I hv done some research and concluded that the egg white beat till between soft n stiff peak ie the tip curls like a hook.
ReplyDeleteand the egg yolk batter should beat till close to pale. hope this will help you. I am learning from you at the same time! Happy Oguraing!
