In season 1, Chef Gail did a show on the various types of Sponge Cakes that rely on the air that is beaten into eggs to leaven them. On today's show she discusses a special type of sponge cake known as The Genoise. No need to separate eggs for this sponge cake, but you will learn what it means to form a "ribbon" as the batter is being prepared. Chef Gail shares her special Hazelnut Genoise recipe from her first book, "About Professional Baking".
