Lemon Chiffon Cake Tips for a Tall, Airy Crumb
Essential Concepts: Fresh lemon zest, neutral oil, and properly separated eggs support height and flavor. Whip to glossy medium peaks, fold gently, bake in an ungreased tube pan, and cool upside down for a tall, airy crumb.
A lemon chiffon cake earns its height through careful choices, not luck. Fresh citrus, stable meringue, and patient handling create a light crumb with clean slices and a bright, balanced flavor.
