    **RECIPE**
    By weight, 4 part eggs to 1 part oil (or melted butter), 1 part milk, 1 part cake flour, 1 part sugar. (A large egg minus its shell is generally ~50 grams.) Additionally, 1/2-1g salt per egg, vanilla (or some other extract), cream of tarter (~1g for every four eggs), 1/10th the weight of the flour in corn starch (optional).
    Make one egg's worth of batter for every 22 inches (360 cm) of pan volume (sorry I said “area” in the vid and gave the wrong cm figure!), where volume is width x length x height.
    You'll need big pan and an even bigger pan you can nest it into. With the pans nested, pour enough water into the bigger pan to come at least halfway up the sides of the smaller pan. Take the smaller pan out, and put the bigger pan (with the water) into your oven. Start the oven heating to 325 F (160 C) - no convection fan, unless you prefer a dry, cracked top. (If using convection, probably lower the heat to 300 F, 150C.)
    Coat all interior sides of the smaller pan with parchment paper. Leave enough excess that you can grab to sling the cake out when it's done.
    Separate all the eggs into two large bowls. Into the bowl with the yolks, put the oil (or melted butter), milk, flour, salt, cornstarch (if using - it makes the interior crumb finer), and a big glug of vanilla or any extract you're using. Weigh out the sugar in a separate bowl - I like to use a little more than 1 part sugar, but all of these proportions can be altered to various effects.
    Put the cream of tarter into the egg whites and beat them until they're very fluffy. Beat in the sugar in a couple installments until you have medium peaks - or stiff peaks if you want an even puffier cake, though that will likely result in a cracked top. Beat the yolk mixture until smooth. Gradually combine the white mixture and the yolk mixture until homogenous.
    Pour the batter into the parchment-lined cake pan, and drop the pan into the water bath in the oven. (Don't worry if it splashes - steam is good for cakes.) Bake until a skewer to the center comes out clean - probably at least an hour, though it will depend on the size.
    When the cake is done, use the parchment as a sling to lift it out before slicing with the longest knife you have.

    Hey, I obviously meant pan VOLUME, not pan AREA. Text on screen should be in^3 (cm^3). Also 22 cubed inches = 360 cubed cm, not 53 as indicated on screen. It’s fixed in the description. Math may be our friend, but I have never been a friend to it. Sorry!

      I have always been curious on what cooks on UA-cam end up doing with the failed attempts when they are trying out a recipe. You mentioned you cooked about a dozen of these on a weekend. Do you end up just throwing those away or eating them? Or is "cooking a dozen of these over the weekend" just an exaggeration?

    Since this recipe is entirely egg based for the purposes of raising, I thought that testing if you can make it in the microwave would work and it absolutely does! It doesn't get the nice browned top but the fluffiness is 100% intact and just as good tasting. Make the batter as per the recipe ratios, (though I used heated oil mixed with flour first to smooth out the all purpose flour more) and just put it in a mug in the microwave and nuke it for ~1-2mins depending on how much you put in.

    Just made this at 1am on a week night because why not. I’m Portuguese so pão-de-ló is almost second nature to me, so I wanted to put this to the test; to anyone with the same idea as me, I warn you it tastes nothing like pão-de-ló, but looks very similar.
    I made a 10-egg recipe, but it almost overflowed my cooking vessel, so I had to switch midway to a slightly larger one so it wouldn’t go off while growing. Turns out, it only rose a couple centimeters on the sides, so switching probably wasn’t necessary.
    The sheet amount of eggs made it smell a bit off (yeah, like farts), but it was to expect; I’m writing this while it’s still warm, I’ve no idea how it’ll smell when cold.
    It turned out amazing though. The jiggle was perfect, the sound it made when you ripped it apart or squeezed it was so pleasant, and the flavour was top notch too. Still not as good in my opinion to pão-de-ló, which is much more sticky, yellow and sweet.

      Don’t worry. That happens to all egg based desserts. Let it cool off. Especially overnight. And all that eggy/fart taste will go away. Edit: my mom likes making egg-based cakes in her free time. This always happened to her. It’ll taste eggy at first. But when you leave alone overnight, it’ll taste sweeter. Like a regular cake (just slightly eggy).

    And you take it out of the oven, reaching that climatic moment of having created something that looks so epic, you can hear the cries of joy, the celebrations, the awe and Mmm wonder what it's like, and that same pensive child-like moment of the warm bread or scones been lifted out of the oven and .... and .... and you say it tastes like Farts!

    Fun fact: the Portuguese also introduced Tempura to Japan! Yep, what most people think of as a Japanese dish was originally Portuguese. The Japanese were interested in the idea of the combo of batter and fry vegetables (original Portuguese one was made with green beans) and adapted it for their own from the recipe, which was originally meant as a way for Catholics to get high energy meals during lent. That is where "tempura" comes from as well, as the Portuguese would say it was a dish for "quattuor anni tempora" which is a latin frase meaning the Ember Days of lent!

    Back in the days I was in primary school, when I still lived 24h per day at school, we used to have these cakes every once in a while as a dessert after dinner.
    I can't remember exactly how frequent, but let's say once a week. In the end I can't make myself sit in front of them anymore.

    The trick to egg separating is using three bowls. One for the yolks, one for the whites, and one for the scooping out action. So whether it's a bad egg or you burst one out while scooping, the rest of your perfectly separated eggs won't be contaminated.
    Also using a fresh and quality egg helps a lot since fresher eggs have thicker whites and also thicker yolk walls (idk the science behind it, just an observation)
    Anddd if you wanna know if there's any bad egg, put it in a container filled with water, and if its float it's probably bad. Since older eggs have bigger air pockets inside them.
    I sell desserts where I need to separate eggs all the time, so I hope this helps!

      You only need two bowls. One for the separating and one for the whites. You only need to worry about the yolks going into the whites, not the other way around. Yolk will mess up a merengue, but the whites will not mess up anything that requires only the yolks. There's always going to be at least a film of egg white on the surface of the yolk.

    With the hot water:
    - You boil the kettle
    - Put the batter in the cake tray
    - Put that in the roasting tray
    - Put the roasting tray in the hot oven
    - Slide the rack out slightly then pour hot water down the sides
    You don't have to drop the huge cake pan into boiling water!? Much safer if you treat it like a bain-marie, fairly common technique I thought.

    This recipe reminds me of this one local cake simply called "layer cake" (Kek Lapis). The ingredients are about the same and even the process before cooking is the same. The baking part is where it differs. To bake the layer cake, you would need to bake one thin layer of cake, slightly thicker than a crepe for about 5 mins per layer at 180*C with only the top emitting heat, with no fan. Press flat, then add the next layer, and so on until you run out of cake mix. In most recipes you would add cinnamon and other spices and cocoa, thats kinda up to you. You can also alternate each layer, so it'll be spice/choco/spice/choco. or whatever. The end result is a buttery smooth cholesterol filled cake that looks amazing when cut.
