Angel Food

Oven, in the book's wordsA slack oven

Ingredients

Directions

The book says “a slack oven”. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Fill the bright tin molds nearly to the top without greasing them.

  3. Bake for about 25 minutes.

  4. Let the cakes cool in the molds before shaking them out.

  5. For best flavor, allow the cakes to sit for a day or two before serving.

Recipe from a historical cookbook (Internet Archive).

Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
