This is the first time I
bake Swiss roll with Carol recipe. The result is very great! My hubby gives
very good ranking for it :) I find that the cake is flexible when come to
rolling stage. I'm wondering is it due to the rice flour?
This time I use steam bake method. I bake the cake at the middle rack with a pan of hot water at the bottom of oven. By doing this the cake can stay moist. I know this tip from YouTube. It really makes the difference!
For Swiss roll lovers this recipe definitely worth to try!

4 yolks
20g castor sugar
30g vegetable oil

50g cake flour
20g rice flour
1 tbsp cocoa powder
(B)

(A)
4 yolks
20g castor sugar
30g vegetable oil
40g milk
50g cake flour
20g rice flour
1 tbsp cocoa powder
(B)
4 whites
1 tsp lemon juice

~Filling
Whipped cream
Method:
1. Whisk yolks and castor sugar till well combine.
2. Add in
vegetable oil and mix well.
3. Whisk in the
sifted flour and milk in 2 batches alternatively.
4. In other bowl
beat the whites till foamy. Add in 1/2 the castor sugar and lemon juice.
Continue beat till glossy. Add in the rest of castor sugar. Beat till stiff
form.
5. Spoon 1/3 of
the stiff whites into yolks batter. Fold to combine. Pour the yolk mixture into
the remaining whites bowl. Fold till well combine.
6. Pour the
batter into lined Swiss roll pan (I'm using 30cm x 36cm). Smooth the surface with scraper.

8. Once cooked, transfer the cake by lifting the baking paper (edges) to wire rack. Leave to cool (about 5 minutes).
9. Invert the cake and gently remove the baking paper. With a knife cut 2 lines (at the beginning of rolling point) but the cake is still attached to each other. Spread the filling evenly on the surface. Leave 1-2cm remain unspread.
10. Hold the cake with both hands and roll gently. When the swiss roll is rolled up, make sure the ending portion facing downward. Keep the roll in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before cut and serve.

ReplyDeleteHi
ReplyDeleteSorry but I don't understand instruction no.9 - "with a knife cut...but the cake is still attached to each other". What do you mean by attached to each other. Your swiss roll looks perfect.
Thanks

Joceline,
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Amanda,
The lines can help the rolling process. Please refer to my early swiss roll post for the photos. Hope this will help.

I'm using whipping cream from box so just whip till soft peak and spread on Swiss roll. Do refer to my other Swiss roll posts for other type of filling eg custard base and buttercream. Hope you can find your favourite filling. Happy baking!
DeleteHello, bumped into your site by accident. I am using one the the blogger's recipe, ie. sugar rolls, however, my roll always stuck to the wet towel, what should I do? any how, I will still want to try out your method.
ReplyDeleteI having the same probelm like you too. However I manage to find out the answer. Do refer to my early post.

Hope this will help. Happy baking!
Hi Vivian,
ReplyDeleteI tried this recipe and it turned out very well w no cracks. However, my skin is wrinkled. any advice how make it smooth like yours? Thanks so much for sharing this recipe..=)
What actually cause wrinkles? Is it due to after cooling down? (rise well inside oven with no cracks but shrink once remove from oven or cool). If so maybe the temperatures is too high. Rise too fast will cause shrinkage. Try to bake at lower temperature and see is it help.
DeleteI have tried out your banana chiffon roll. However, I broke one of the egg yolks, (real jinxed ler), thus, I beat all eggs together. After baked at 200 Celcius, I removed from the tray, used the tray to cover the sponge, skipped the wet tea towel steps (no memories), used silicone paper to roll, results, cracked roll, however, this time got face already, but crack, taste and texture, 一流! Why crack? mana sudah salah, should I use wet tea towel before silicone paper?
ReplyDeleteDid you use steam baked? With this recipe and steam baked method I can easily roll up with baking paper. Could it be too high temperature or cook too long? Hope you try again and see how. I'm sure you can get pretty rolls after you master the rolling skills.
Deleteya, I steamed baked, but more than 12 mins, about 15 mins, becos I see the face did not turn brown. Anyway, I have tried another blogger's durian rolls, this time I use 190 Celcius, result? fantastic, I can roll it on tea towel, I did not use silicone paper at all.
DeleteThank you very much for sharing the knowledge with me. I have been asking around, with my friend, who is baking and selling cakes to supermarts (she told she she does not know how to tell me), hehehe, you know what I mean la, I asked bakery supplies boss, she suggest I pay RM60.00 for 3 recipes swiss roll lessons, sigh... nowadays, people are very profit oriented... luckily I have a blogger friend like you! A big thank you again!
Yes. It rose very high in the oven n then shrink dur cooling.
ReplyDeleteOk, I shall try baking 10 deg lower and see. ;)
Thanks so much ;)
I have baked again last night, this time, I use a high rack, put two small tin of water underneath it, at 190 celcius for 11 min, results, fantastic, no crack. However, the next morning, when I took out from the fridge, the cling film stucked to its face!
ReplyDeleteIt seems the surface not fully bake. Suggest to bake further maybe 3-5 minutes more?
DeleteI baked several swiss rolls, filling them either with toffee + banana + whipped cream or with fruit jelly + whipped cream. However, they always come out a bit on the dry side. Last time I even spooned some grape juice over the sponge before rolling, and it still went dry in a matter of hours. I bake for my coffee shop, so the roll would stay in chilled cabinet without the air-tight protection. Any suggestions how to keep the roll sponge moist?
ReplyDeleteThanks
Hi Vivian,
ReplyDeleteI have tried your recipe last night. This is the first time I'm using the steam bake method. Yah... the cake turned out soft and moist. Thank you very much for sharing your recipe. :)
So I don't need a mixer? My gma used to make this for my mom, every year, on her b-day. She passed away 8 or so years ago. I'm hoping to surprise her with her favorite childhood memory:-) Keeping my fingers crossedxxx Hopefully mine will turn out 1/2 as good as yours:)

Hi!!! compliments for yours recipes and your blog!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Vivian,
ReplyDeletejust wanna check, is rice flour the same as glutenous rice flour?
thanks
It is not the same. You can just use all cake flour instead. Happy baking!
Deleteoh, ok. will try so. thanks so much for the advice.. will try it tomorrow.. hope it comes out as good as yours. :)
DeleteHello
ReplyDeleteCould you please tell me the size of your pan? Your site is great. I want to do some of the swiss toll receipts.
thanks
Teo
I already mentioned in step 6. Do find out.
DeleteAnd another question. Alex Goh said that about japanese coton roll:
ReplyDelete"Tips: if the egg white is over-whipped, the cake will rise up very high and collapse, thus, causing the cake to become compact.".
You said that the white egg must form stiff.
Did you try the tips of Goh?
thanks
Teo
I'm not sure about the tip given by Alex Goh. With this method and oven temperature (my oven) I used, I manage to get nice roll.
ReplyDeleteHi Vivian, i followed your recipe and it turned out great!! I find it easier to roll the cake in fact. Oven steam bake really did make a big difference compare to pure oven bake. Really appreciate your recipe sharing. Thank you :)
ReplyDeleteWhy do you use rice flour and not corn flour?
ReplyDeleteThe recipe I follow, Carol is using rice flour. Substitute with part of rice flour make this Swiss roll easy to be rolled. However you can use all cake flour if you can't find.
DeleteDear Vivian, using steam bake, is the time also same as direct bake? I tried with steam bake but the cake does not even cook after one hour

ReplyDeleteHi Vivian
In your posting, the Ingredient section under (A), has a 1 tablespoon cocoa powder. But it was not mentioned when and where to incorporate it in the Method section. Please enlighten. Thanks.
