Spring Ginger Simmered in Honey Pound Cake instructions
- Slice about 10 g of ginger for topping, and then chop up the rest roughly. Do not add syrup..
- Put the butter in a small container and melt it. If you can, keep it at about 40~50℃. Please refer to Step 17..
- If you are using heavy cream, do the same thing and keep it warm with by placing the container in hot water..
- Line the pan with paper. Make sure the paper sticks out of the pan by about 1 cm. Preheat the oven to 180℃.
- In a large bowl, add the egg and granulated sugar, warm it over a water bath at about 60~70℃, and dissolve the sugar while mixing with a hand mixer..
- Once the sugar has dissolved (and the egg is at about 40℃), remove the mixture from the water bath and whisk it at high speed for about 5~6 minutes until it leaves an indent if you stick your finger into it..
- Once it has thickened, turn to low speed for about a minute until the batter is smooth..
- At this point, add all the butter or heavy cream and mix it well with the hand mixer..
- Using a spatula, mix the batter well by scraping the bowl it from the bottom..
- Sift the cake flour and add it to the batter. Mix it by folding from the bottom about 20 times until you cannot see any powder..
- Add the chopped ginger and mix it quickly by hand for about 10 strokes until there are no clumps and the batter is smooth..
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Tap the pan against the counter in order to remove any large air bubbles. Decorate the top with ginger and sesame..
- Bake for about 35 minutes at 180℃. Poke it with a bamboo skewer. If nothing sticks to it, you are done..
- Remove it from the pan and rest it on a rack till it is completely cool. Once cooled, wrap it in cling or plastic film and store it in the fridge..
- It is good to eat after one day! My recommendation is to eat it after two days. The flavor deepens over time..
- It tastes good at room temperature too, but I like it chilled..
- You can use the water bath from Step 5 to keep the butter warm!.
- As for the oven temperature and such, please adjust it based on your equipment..
- If you use flour + rice flour, and add half of the sesame into the batter, you get a delicious, moist cake!.
- A friend flipped the cake upside down, and added a lemon glaze and gold dust! Luxurious..
- If you use heavy cream instead of butter, you get a plump and most cake! The steps and measurements are the same! Take your pick..
- By the way, the heavy cream I used is animal based with 1/3 the calories..
