Seaweed and Pork Floss Cake Roll | How to Make a Delicious and Not-Too-Sweet Cake

Step 1
How to make pure milk hand-torn toast: Step 1

First, prepare the ingredients. Separate the egg whites and yolks beforehand. The bowl for the egg whites should be free of oil and water. You can freeze the egg whites briefly. Place the corn oil and milk in a large bowl.

Step 2

Step 3

Mix until you can no longer see any obvious dry powder; do not overmix.

Step 5

Start by adding the egg yolks to the batter. You can add the egg yolks in batches or all at once.

Step 6

You can use either the Z-shaped mixing method or the folding method. The egg yolk batter prepared using the last egg mixing method is smooth, fine, and free of lumps. Set the prepared egg yolk batter aside for later use.

Step 7

Add a few drops of lemon juice or white vinegar to the egg whites and beat until the meringue has clear lines and a smooth texture. When you lift the whisk, the egg whites should form soft, slightly curved peaks.

Step 8

Add about 1/3 of the meringue to the egg yolk mixture and fold it in gently with a spatula.

Step 9

Step 10

Mix thoroughly using a folding motion until a smooth, non-deflating cake batter is formed.

Step 11

Slowly pour the mixture into a non-stick gold dish from a low height, and gently tap it twice to remove air bubbles.

Step 12
How to make pure milk hand-torn toast: Step 1

Place in a preheated oven at 170 degrees Celsius (340 degrees Fahrenheit), bake at 150 degrees Celsius (300 degrees Fahrenheit) with both top and bottom heat for 28 minutes. To prevent the surface from peeling and to make it drier, you can increase the top heat to 165 degrees Celsius (325 degrees Fahrenheit) for the last few minutes. Please adjust the time and temperature according to your own oven.

Step 13

Once baked, remove the baking tray from the oven and tap it on the table a couple of times to release the hot air from the bottom.

Step 15

Lift the parchment paper out of the baking pan, peel off the parchment paper around the edges, and the cake roll will not deflate, shrink, or collapse, and will be tall enough.

Step 16

Flip it over and peel off the parchment paper at the bottom to get the towel side.

Step 17
How to make pure milk hand-torn toast: Step 1

Roll the cake while it's still slightly warm; don't let it cool completely. Today we're making a reverse roll. After unmolding the cake roll, turn it upside down and place it on a sheet of parchment paper, right side up. Spread salad dressing evenly on the right side, then add seaweed and pork floss.

Step 18

Step 19
How to make pure milk hand-torn toast: Step 1

Seaweed and Pork Floss Cake Roll | Tips for a Delicious and Not-Too-Sweet Cake

You can use the crispy seaweed you buy at the supermarket, or the kind you use for sushi. After pouring the cake batter into the baking pan, tilting the pan should level the batter. If it's impossible to level it by tilting, the egg whites have been over-whipped and stiffened, and the texture might not be as fluffy after baking. If it's pourable and levels itself without tilting, it means the batter has deflated. The oven temperature and time must be adjusted according to your specific needs. For making a Swiss roll, whip the egg whites to a soft peak stage (slightly drooping).
