Step cooking
We work with eggs
- Gently separate the proteins from the yolks of three fresh (this is very important!) And well-cooled chicken eggs.
- In a volumetric cup, beat the proteins with a mixer in a strong foam until a dense peak occurs. Begin to whisk at low speeds, gradually adding the speed of rotation of the blades as the formation of foam.
- Grind the yolks into a homogeneous mass, gradually adding 50 g of powdered sugar.
- Pour another 50 g of powdered sugar into the protein foam, and beat the proteins again.
Making a biscuit dough
- Turn on the oven for heating, setting the temperature to 180 ° C. Slowly and gently mix the yolk mass with the dense protein foam, crushed with powdered sugar, working exclusively with a spatula, and in no case with a mixer.
- Into the mixed egg mass, 75 g of wheat sifted flour are added portionwise, mixing the dough with light movements from top to bottom.
- Transfer the finished dough into a pastry bag.
Bake Ladies' Fingers
- Set the sponge cake in the form of thin short sticks on a baking sheet covered with baking paper (or oiled parchment).
- Before baking, sprinkle the surface of future cookies with the remaining (20 g) powdered sugar or small sugar.
- Bake for 10-13 minutes. in a well and evenly warmed oven until a straw shade of baking appears.
Did you know? If there is no pastry bag, you can use a dense plastic bag. The corner of the bag is cut off after filling it with dough or cream. Cookies are well stored in tightly sealed containers. Only before baking for storage should the baking be cooled so that condensation does not form on the walls of the dishes. Otherwise, egg-based cookies will quickly go bad.
