Cooking

step-0
Received from Tanya LaCostena English recipe, couldn't wait to start cooking. Tanya, thank you for teaching me culinary cinema and for such a delicious recipe!!! The recipe is quite not difficult, in three stages. Almost, without much work you will get the most wonderful dessert!!!
step-1
If you don't have almond flour, just pour boiling water 55 g almonds, leave on for 10 minutes, drain and pour cold skin of the nut will instantly removable. Then dry on a dry pan or in the oven. Suggest this procedure be done in advance. I did it the day before. On the following day to scroll to the almonds in the processor until fine crumbs. Now let's start with the layers - Lemon filling-Lemon filling. Lightly whisk 5 eggs, without effort, just to break the yolks.
step-2
Then add the cream,
step-3
... powder, 1 tbsp grated zest and 125 ml of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Cover with foil and refrigerate.
step-4
Now prepare the dough. Separate the whites from the yolks. In a bowl mix: flour, almond flour, powder, chopped butter, baking powder. Hands grind until fail baby.
step-5
Into crumbs, add 3 egg yolks one at a time, until dough gather into a ball, then knead thoroughly. Maybe you need to pour a bit of flour. The dough should be very dense and tight. Roll out on foil or silicone Mat to a thickness of 1 cm and covering with foil, put into the refrigerator for 30 minutes, my dough was very thick, I didn't even need to take him out in the cold.
step-6
A very important point - I do not advise to use anything but the split form. The diameter of my 23 cm preheat the Oven to 180 ° C. the Bottom of a split form to cover with baking paper, clip boards. The layer of dough upside down, put the form and then turn over all together - the dough was on the form. Distribute bottom and sides, the remains of a test cut with the help of roller. Basis covered with foil and fill with beans or peas. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then bake 5 minutes without foil and peas/beans. Give the form to cool for 15-30 minutes.
step-7
Lemon Foundation loose add the remaining yolks. In the cool sand Foundation pour strained through a sieve (from the peel) the lemon filling. Bake for 40 minutes at 180C. Minutes through 20 go to the stove, I had the top cover with foil. Turn off the oven. Give the basis to cool completely.
step-8
After about an hour (yet I advise you to watch the movie TOAST, about cooking and difficult destiny)... ... turn on the oven at 160 degrees. And whisk the whites at room temperature by adding 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, and one tablespoon powdered sugar. Remove the cake from the sides of a split form. On the cooled crust of chaotic movements spread the beaten egg whites. Bake in preheated oven for 12-18 minutes, until light blush.
