Sift in the cake flour.
Step 5
Whisk by hand until the batter is smooth and silky.
Step 6
Add the sugar to the egg whites in three additions and beat to stiff peaks — when the whisk is lifted, the tip should stand upright in a small point.
Step 7
Fold one-third of the meringue into the yolk batter with a whisk, then pour the mixture back into the remaining meringue and continue folding gently until evenly combined.
Step 8
Pour the batter into a tube pan and gently drop it on the counter a few times to release air bubbles.

Demold the cake by hand for a clean, beautiful finish.
