Steps:
- 1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
- 2. - Using an egg separator, separate one of the eggs into a small bowl or measuring cup. - Then transfer egg white to a large bowl. - Repeat with remaining eggs (this keeps any yolk from accidentally getting into all your whites). - Discard yolks. - Let egg whites warm to room temperature. - Add cream of tartar and salt to egg whites.
- 3. - Beat egg whites until frothy. - Gradually beat in superfine sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, until stiff but glossy peaks form, about 5 to 7 minutes. - Beat in vanilla extract.
- 4. - Fold flour into egg whites in two additions, until incorporated. - Spoon batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan. *VARIATION for a CHOCOLATE and VANILLA MARBLED ANGEL FOOD CAKE* - Follow directions above through step 3. - Then remove half of the batter to a medium-size bowl. - Reduce flour to 3/4 cup. - Fold 1/2 cup of the flour into the batter in one of the bowls. - Sift 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and the remaining 1/4 cup flour over the second half of the batter in the other bowl and fold in both. - Spoon batters alternately into a 10-inch tube pan. - Swirl together with a knife for a marbled effect. - Bake and cool as directed in step 5.
- 5. - Bake at 350 degrees F for 35 to 40 minutes, until top has risen very high and is lightly browned and cracked. - Remove from oven and immediately invert onto baking sheet or neck of bottle. - Cool completely.
