Starch acts as the structural foundation in this recipe, replacing traditional wheat flour entirely to create a remarkably delicate crumb. When eggs are beaten thoroughly with sugar, trapped air expands inside the mixture during baking, which provides the primary leavening force alongside the chemical baking powder. Understanding how these components react under heat prevents common structural failures.
Excessive mixing after the starch is added deflates the delicate foam and yields a dense, rubbery cake. Maintaining exact baking temperatures ensures the trapped air expands uniformly without collapsing the crumb structure before the starch sets.
