Homemade angel food cake is worth the work. It is moist, unlike the sweet Styrofoam-like cakes available in the grocery bakery. A tube pan with a removable bottom is highly recommended.
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups egg whites
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons almond extract
- 1.25 cups cake flour
- 1.75 cups white sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Instructions
-
1
Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Mix in cream of tartar, vanilla extract, and almond extract.

2
Sift together flour, sugar, and salt. Repeat five times.
-
3
Gently fold flour mixture into beaten egg whites.
-
4
Pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan.
-
5
Place the pan in a cold oven. Turn the oven on and set it to 325 degrees F (165degrees C). Bake until cake is golden brown, about 1 hour.
-
6
Invert the tube pan and let cake cool to room temperature before removing from the pan.
-

Betty's 3-Bean Hot Dish (a la Minnesota)
My dearest 80-something friend Betty gave me this sensational, hearty recipe for a 3-bean hot dish. She's Finnish, I believe this has roots to home, and it's really tasty! My hubby, who hates beans, demanded I get the recipe. We first devoured it at Betty and Jim's 60th wedding anniversary! Perfect for potlucks.
