Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

  2. Step 2

    Butter the inside of two eight-cup loaf pans. Sprinkle the inside of each pan with sugar and shake it around to coat the bottom and sides.

  3. Step 3

    Put the egg yolks and one cup of sugar in a mixing bowl and beat, preferably with an electric mixer, until the mixture is light and pale yellow. Add the vanilla.

  4. Step 4

    Put the all-purpose flour and potato starch in a flour sifter and sift it on top of the egg yolk mixture, folding it in gently but well.

  5. Step 5

    Beat the egg whites until they are almost stiff. Add the remaining one tablespoon of sugar and continue beating until the egg whites are stiff.

  6. Step 6

    Add about one-third of the egg whites to the yolk mixture and beat to blend well. Add the remaining whites and fold them in.

  7. Step 7

    Pour the mixture into the prepared pans and place in the oven. Bake 30 minutes or until a straw or thin wooden skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Unmold onto a rack and let cool.
