Recipe Review

This is one of three cakes that I make over and over from this book, and that's saying a lot, because I make very many of the cakes from this book. When this cake is freshly made, is has the most swoon-making tang to it, and it is not overly sweet. The texture is the epitome of perfection, with a light, but still tight, crumb.

It is probably best plain, though you could embellish pretty much however you like, though I would tend to want to enhance the tanginess and not mute it with chocolate or something. A lemon or orange filling could be outstanding, or a berry topping. As Ms. Beranbaum suggests, crème fraîche and fresh, ripe peaches are excellent with it.
