i am eating local with ROSE’S heavenly CAKES: Hungarian Jancsi Torta (page 279).
1- using mac nuts instead of walnuts:
2- using maui turbinado sugar (non superfined):
3- my hawaiian chocolate:
4- and a couple of drops of french arome added to the yolk mixture:
H, a friend asked me if she could replace the walnuts with almonds in the recipe. I wasn’t sure about it. Is it possible?
J, i’ve not done so, however i am fairly sure you can. almonds are lower in fat content than walmuts or macs, if anything the cake will be a little crisper.
the structure of this cake, as well as most other sponge cakes (where eggs are foamed), doesn’t depend a whole lot on fat content, so i would just go for it!
