Experienced culinary advice

Biscuit rolls with jam, condensed milk and any other filling can turn an ordinary tea party into a real holiday. Despite the fact that such a dough is considered the easiest to prepare, it may not work either. Experienced housewives know the main secrets of how to make a really light and airy dough that does not become tough when baked and is well saturated with the filling:

1. The first rule is to always get your eggs and refrigerator a little ahead of time. Cold protein does not whisk well, and the foam from it quickly settles. Some people advise adding salt, but this ingredient will not help.
2. Chill the roll when rolled, so the dough will not crack after. Roll the still hot crust into a tube with a towel or paper and start filling. Then gently unfold the roll, apply the filling and roll back - this way it will keep its shape better.
3. Do not use homemade eggs for the biscuit - too thick protein is not good for light airy foam. Choose high quality store eggs. It is better to take the larger ones, since they contain more protein.
4. Do not open the oven for the first 10-15 minutes of baking. The state of the cake can be viewed by simply turning on the lighting. If cold air gets in, the dough will not rise and will be tough.
5. To prevent the biscuit cake from burning, place a container with coarse salt on the lower tier of the oven. Of course, take into account also the peculiarities of the technique and select the appropriate mode.
6. Cool the biscuit layer gradually. If you put it out in the cold or refrigerate it, it will quickly become dense and tough and will not absorb the filling.
