- Preheat the oven to 356 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Sift the cake flour into the egg-and-sugar mixture, half at a time, and mix on low speed with an electric mixer for a minute or two in total, until just combined.
- Pour the batter into an ungreased tube pan. Drop it lightly on the counter to raise the air bubbles out of the batter.

- When it’s done, drop the pan lightly on a counter to prevent shrinking.
- Turn the pan upside down and place it on a bottle, so it’s suspended over the counter. Allow it to cool completely – for about an hour or two – before removing it from the pan. Remove the cake from the pan and cover tightly with plastic wrap.
