To prepare our orange cake, first put the butter in a bowl. Leave it for half an hour at room temperature to make it soft. Then, add the sugar mixing everything, preferably with a wooden spoon or electric whisk, vigorously to obtain a soft and frothy cream.<\/p>\n
Incorporate the egg yolks, the orange zest, the flour previously sifted together with the cornstarch and, lastly, the yeast mixed with 3 tablespoons of orange juice. Mix everything well until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.<\/p>\n
Whip the egg whites in a bowl until stiff adding a pinch of salt and incorporate them into the mixture, stirring from the bottom upwards so as not to dismantle them.<\/p>\n
Pour everything into the mold making it settle well and cook it for about half an hour in a preheated oven at 160\u00b0C; let our orange cake cool on a wire rack.<\/p>\n
Prepare the custard by heating the milk with a piece of orange zest. Assemble in a bowl, with a wooden spoon or electric whisk, the egg yolks together with the sugar to obtain a white and smooth cream.<\/p>\n
Then add the sifted cornstarch and hot milk, preferably filtered, and mix quickly. Cook the cream over low heat, stirring constantly with a whisk.<\/p>\n
When it begins to thicken, then to boil, remove it from the heat and pour it into a bowl to cool.\u00a0 Let’s remember to mix it from time to time.<\/p>\n
Divide the cake into two discs and brush what will be the base with 3-4 tablespoons of orange juice, then spread the jam and finally cover with the custard. Place the second disc on the filling, which has already been brushed with more orange juice.<\/p>\n
Wash the oranges well, dry them and cut them into thin slices.<\/p>\n
Simmer the sugar with 2 tablespoons of water in a pan, adding some orange liquor to taste.<\/p>\n
You will thus obtain a fluid and clear syrup in which you will put the orange slices that you will turn carefully several times. Caramelize them until the liquid has been absorbed.<\/p>\n
Finally, arrange the orange slices on our cake and let it cool before serving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
