What kind of Pan do you bake Japanese Castella cake in?
Traditionally, Japanese Castella cake is baked slowly in a wooden frame to create a soft smooth texture for the sponge because a metal baking pan would transfer the heat too fast and it would become too dry. I assume most of you would not have a wooden frame readily available, so my Castella recipe uses a standard 1-lb loaf pan.
How to make a perfect Castella cake?
Line the base and the side of the cake pan with baking paper. Pour the batter into the pan slowly from the position one foot above the base. The impact of the batter onto the pan and the slow pouring action helps to break the bubbles. Fill the pan only up to sixty percent full to let the castella enough space to rise in the oven.
