Tips

• don't grease the pan
• whip the egg whites as directed perfectly.  If you beat it too much, the egg whites in the mixture will deflate and your cake will be tough. Remember your batter will not be as stiff as a meringue
• sift the dry ingredients twice or three times
• fold with a whisk
• cool it upside-down surrounded by air-flow
