Traduzione inglese-italiano
"Plum"= prugna
"Cake"= torta
Torta di prugne
Eppure la prima cosa che mi viene da pensare quando perso al plumcake è lo yogurt. Uno po' come la pizza, al di fuori dell'Italia, ognuno la condisce in base al proprio gusto culinario, così abbiamo fatto noi col plumcake, trasformandolo da un fantastico dolce alle prugne, ad un magnifico dolce per la prima colazione.
Quindi, in mancanza di biscotti che si fa? Pronte frusta, yogurt e farina, si comincia a pasticciare, così che il risveglio non sia più tanto traumatico...(o almeno per le prime 2 ore del mattino).
Ingredienti
(per 8 porzioni)
150 g di farina
50 g di fecola di patate
3 uova grandi (o 3 uova medie + 1 tuorlo)
150 g di zucchero
250 g di yogurt all'albicocca
100 ml olio di semi di mais
1 bustina di lievito
scorza di un limone biologico
1 pizzico di sale
Se voi come me, non avete avuto il tempo di lasciare le uova fuori dal frigo con il dovuto anticipo, e dovete anche preparare la cena, procedente con il metodo del PdS di Montersino. Sbattete le uova con lo zucchero in un pentolino e portate alla temperatura di 40°C. Trasferite il composto nella ciotola e cominciate a montarlo con un pizzico di sale. Aggiungere successivamente l'olio a filo, lo yogurt e la scorza del limone. Da ultimo i solidi (farina, lievito, fecola) mescolati e setacciati.
A vostro piacimento, potete aggiugere cioccolato in scaglie o frutta secca.
Lasciar cuocere a forno preriscaldato a 170°C (solo la griglia inferiore) per 15 min per il mini plum cakes, 40 min per lo stampo grande.
(ENGLISH VERSION)
Ingredients
(for 8 mini plumcakes)
150 g plain flour
50 g potato starch
3 big eggs (if medium 3 eggs + 1 yolk)
150 g caster sugar
250 g apricot yoghurt
100 ml cornseed oil
16 gr baking powder
1 zest
a pinch of salt
If you don't have the eggs at room temperature, place eggs and sugar in a bowl and, beating, heat to 40°C. Once heated, place in the mixer and start whip with a pinch of salt. Add flush the seedoil, then the yoghur and the zest; last the solid ingredients (flour, potato starch and baking powder, mixed and sifted).
Place in the little molds and bake at 170° C (preheat oven) for 15 minutes.

Apple Cake
Apple pie, apple cake, apple tart, tart tatin...there are a lot of different sweets you can do using the apples of your apple tree.
This time I've tried to make a soft breakfast apple cake.
Let's have a look!
Torta morbida di mele
Ingredients
226g butter
4 eggs
300 g all-purpose flour
200g liquid cream
180g sugar
3 tsp baking powder
2 apples
Glazed
home-made percocas peaches marmelade
Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in one yolk at a time and continue to beat until light and fluffy. Sift flour, baking powder and salt. Add the flour into the butter mixture alternating with the fresh cream.Beat the egg whites until still and add to the mix, then add in the cubes one apple.
Prepare an 8” baking pan, greased well and line the bottom with parchment paper. Pre-heat the oven to 350 degree F (160°C).
Pour the batter into the baking pan. Smooth the top. Arrange the slice apple on top of the cake and bake for an hour till golden brown or until skewer comes out clean when tested.
Removed from oven and let it cool down for 10 minutes in the pan and then turn it out on the cooling rack. Mix the marmalade with some drops of water and brush it all over the top of the cake.
Have a try!
(Italian version)
Esistono mille versioni diverse di torte di mele, alte basse, sfogliate, con lo yogurt, senza e via discorrendo. Quello che stavo cercando io, però, era una torta alta e soffice, che sapesse poco di burro, alta e compatta ma morbida, così come l'avevo assaggiata in un ristorante di un amico.
La mia prova è stata la seguente e devo ammettere che è molto simile a quella che cercavo.
Il sapore? Delizioso!

Walnuts Cake
"Just got back from a pleasure trip: I took my mother-in-law to the airport."
Herry Youngman
There is always a reason to say something unhappy about your mother-in-law, but this is not that case.
I've asked her to send me her recipe for this fantastic cake and I think she is always happy when I appreciate her cakes.
I would say, I tested it for the first time and I decided to make it by my self. This is the most soft cake that you have ever tried! Believe me! It's quite impossible eat it without dirty all around... :)
I guess I will use the same recipe to test new cakes changing something here and there.
Have a look...
