THE BEST ANGEL FOOD CAKE
Even though there are just a few ingredients in this simple cake, there are also a few techniques that will make or break it. First, be sure to use the correct pan -- an angel food cake pan -- and do not grease it. Additionally, superfine sugar, sifted cake flour and perfectly whipped egg whites are key components that set you up for success -- and set this cake apart from the rest.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Whisk the sugar, cream of tartar and salt together in a medium bowl.
- Add the egg whites and 2 tablespoons water to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment. Beat on low speed until the whites are foamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Increase the speed to medium and slowly sprinkle in the sugar mixture (this should take about 3 minutes). Watching closely, continue beating until medium-soft peaks form, 5 to 7 minutes longer. (You want the mixture to droop when lifted out of the bowl. If the peaks stand straight up, you have taken it too far and the cake will sink during baking). Add the vanilla and mix until just combined.
- Remove the mixing bowl from the stand and working in three additions, very gently fold the flour into the egg whites until just incorporated. Spoon the batter into an ungreased 10-inch footed angel food cake pan and smooth the top.
- Bake until the top is golden and springs back when touched and a cake tester inserted into the middle comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and place the cake upside-down on a wire rack to cool completely in the pan, about 3 hours.
- Run a knife or a small offset spatula around the edges of the pan and gently tap it on the counter until it releases from the pan. Use a sharp serrated knife to slice the cake -- a regular knife will smash it. Serve with berries and whipped cream.
ANGEL FOOD CAKE
This dessert, originally from an article called "Angel Food Cake 101," is revered as much for its airy, light texture as for its delicate flavor, which brings out the best in everything it touches: Fresh fruit, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, lemon curd, and more.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees, with rack in lower third but not on bottom shelf. Prepare a 10-inch angel-food-cake pan: Using the pan as your guide, cut a circle from a piece of parchment paper; use it to line bottom of pan. Using a sieve, sift flour and 1/2 cup sugar onto another piece of parchment.
- Set sieve over a bowl, and return mixture to sieve; sift again and set aside.
- Place egg whites in a large mixing bowl. Beat on medium speed until frothy, about 1 minute. Add the cream of tartar, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt; continue beating until soft peaks form, about 2 1/2 minutes. With mixer running, add remaining cup sugar a little at a time, beating no longer than 1 minute.
- Raise speed to medium-high; continue beating until firm, but not stiff, peaks form (when beater is lifted, only the tip of the peak should fall over slightly). Gently transfer egg-white mixture to a large, wide bowl. Sprinkle a third of the reserved flour mixture over the whites. Using a whisk, gently combine in a folding motion, allowing batter to fall through the whisk as you fold. Sprinkle remaining flour mixture over whites in two more batches; fold until just combined. Be careful not to overmix because the egg whites will deflate.
- Using a large rubber spatula, transfer batter to prepared pan. Run a knife gently through the center of the batter to remove any large air bubbles. Bake until a cake tester inserted in the middle comes out clean and cake is springy to the touch, 45 to 50 minutes.
- Remove pan from oven and invert onto its legs, making sure cake clears the surface of the counter. (If using a tube pan, invert it and hang over the neck of a bottle.) Let cool completely, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. To remove cake, reinvert pan, top side up. Run a knife around the inner and outer edges of the cake before releasing the bottom. Cake will keep up to 2 days at room temperature in an airtight container or wrapped in plastic. To serve, slice with a serrated knife.
ANGEL FOOD CAKE I
Homemade angel food cake is worth the work. It is moist, unlike the sweet styrofoam available in the grocery bakery. A tube pan with a removable bottom is highly recommended.

PAN-FRIED ANGEL'S FOOD CAKE
Do you have leftover angel's food cake that is starting to get stale. Here's an unusual but delicious thing to do with it: pan-fry it in your skillet. Sound unlikely? Try it. The buttery crust that develops on the cake is heavenly. I used a chocolate angel's food from the bakery when I first made this and I didn't think it could be improved upon. Then I thought about giving the slices other toppings: ice cream, whipped cream or Cool Whip, fruit salsa, strawberries and cream for an unusual strawberry shortcake -- the possibilities seem endless. This recipe is a keeper! It came from BH&G.

Steps:
- Cut the cake into 16 slices. If you have only a part of a cake, knowing that 1/4 of the cake yields 4 slices will help you determine the approximate size of the slice.
- Lightly spread cut sides of 8 cake slices with 1/2 of the butter. Add cake slices to a large nonstick skillet.
- Place skillet over medium-high heat. Cook 3 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer slices to serving plate. Remove pan from heat and allow to cool while heating jam.
- In small saucepan heat jam until it begins to melt. Transfer to serving bowl.
- Lightly spread remaining cake slices with remaining butter, add to cooled pan, and toast as instructed above. Serve with heated jam (or your choice of other toppings). Recipe is easily reduced to meet your amount of cake.
