A traditional cake from Albania, compliments of CBF field staff.
Ingredients
10 1/2 ounces plain yogurt
2 2/3 cups sugar
1 stick plus 6 tablespoons butter
6 1/4 cups flour
5 eggs, separated
1 teaspoon baking soda
Lemon peel
Instructions
In a bowl, sift together flour and baking soda. In another bowl, place butter and sugar in mixing bowl and beat for three to four minutes. Add the yogurt, egg yolks, and lemon peel. Mix well. In a third bowl beat egg whites until stiff. Add half the flour mixture to the yogurt mixture and mix with wooden spoon. Fold in half the egg whites. Add the other half of the flour mixture and then fold in the other half of the egg whites, being careful not to beat. Bake in a greased and floured tube pan at 325 degrees for approximately one hour or until lightly browned. Cool on a cake rack for about 20 minutes and then turn onto a cake plate. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve with fresh fruit in season. Serves approximately 10 people.
