Method

  1. 1 Beat whole eggs with sugar for 15 minutes until the mixture is creamy white and has tripled in thickness.
  2. 2 The cake contains no butter, milk, or baking powder, so all the leavening comes solely from the air in the beaten eggs.
  3. 3 Sift the flour in three times and mix in one direction to avoid collapsing the egg mixture.
  4. 4 Pour into a round mold, then sprinkle with raisins, diced candied winter melon, and pistachios.
  5. 5 Bake at 170 degrees for 35 minutes; the cake is done when the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into it comes out clean.
  6. 6 Allow the cake to cool completely in the mold before cutting; if it's still hot, it will collapse and become soggy inside.

With an appliance

  • Air fryer 1 hr 10 min

    Replace step 5: spray oil into the small mold, place the steamer at 185 degrees for 23 minutes and rotate the mold half a turn after 12 minutes; the cake will cook faster, do not flip to prevent the egg mass from collapsing and divide into batches if the mold is large.
