RHUBARB LEMON CAKE ROLL
Steps:
- Make filling:
- In a heavy saucepan cook rhubarb with sugar over moderate heat, stirring often, 20 to 25 minutes, or until rhubarb is a thick purée (about 1 1/2 cups). In a small bowl sprinkle gelatin over water and let soften 1 minute. Add gelatin to rhubarb and stir over low heat 1 minute, or until gelatin is dissolved. Transfer filling to a metal bowl set in a bowl of ice and cold water and stir occasionally until cooled and thickened.
- Make cake:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line the bottom of a greased jelly-roll pan, 15 1/2 by 10 1/2 by 1 inch, with foil. Grease foil and dust with flour, knocking out excess.
- In a bowl with an electric mixer beat egg yolks, 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar, zest, and vanilla until thick and pale and mixture forms a ribbon when beaters are lifted.
- In a large bowl with cleaned beaters beat egg whites with salt until they hold soft peaks. Beat in the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar gradually and beat whites until they hold stiff peaks.
- Stir one third of whites into yolk mixture to lighten it and fold in remaining whites gently but thoroughly. Sift flour and cornstarch over batter and fold in until batter is just combined.
- Spread batter evenly in prepared pan and bake in middle of oven 6 to 9 minutes, or until cake is lightly colored and springs back when pressed lightly.
- Dust a kitchen towel generously with confectioners' sugar and invert cake onto it. Remove foil carefully from cake. Starting with a long side, roll up cake loosely and gently in the towel and cool 30 minutes.
- Make lemon syrup:
- In a very small saucepan bring all ingredients to simmer, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Keep syrup warm.
- Assemble cake:
- Unroll cake carefully and brush with half of the warm syrup. Spread cake with filling and reroll cake carefully. Transfer cake to a platter, seam side down, and brush with remaining syrup. Chill roll, covered loosely, at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Make lemon glaze:
- In a small bowl stir together sugar and lemon juice to make a pourable glaze.
- Transfer glaze to a small resealable plastic bag and snip one corner to make a small hole. Trim ends of cake diagonally and squeeze glaze decoratively over cake.
- Serve cake, sliced crosswise, with White Chocolate Toasted Almond Semifreddo.
LEMON-RHUBARB OLIVE-OIL BUNDT CAKE
A dairy-free dump and whisk batter means this Bundt is extra easy to make. Plus the olive-oil and whipped egg whites give it a light, fluffy texture reminiscent of a cake donut. And there's a secret technique to this tangy, lemon-rhubarb knockout: a coat of sanding sugar in the pan helps the cake come out of the mold, while also baking into a sparkly shell.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Brush a 10‐to‐15‐cup Bundt pan with oil; generously sprinkle with sanding sugar to fully coat (do not tap out excess).
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together oil, egg yolks, 1 cup granulated sugar, vanilla, and lemon zest and juice. In a third bowl, beat egg whites on low until foamy.
- Increase speed to medium‐high and gradually add 1/4 cup granulated sugar, beating until stiff, glossy peaks form. Stir oil mixture into flour mixture just to combine. Stir one‐third of egg‐white mixture into batter, then gently fold in remaining egg‐white mixture just until no streaks remain (do not overmix).
- Toss rhubarb with remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar to evenly coat. Fold rhubarb mixture into batter, then transfer to pan; smooth top with a spatula. Bake until cake is golden brown on top and a wooden skewer inserted into center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes (if top is browning too quickly, tent with foil).
- Let cool in pan on a wire rack 20 minutes, then invert onto a plate or stand and let cool completely before slicing and serving. Cake is best served the day it's baked, but can also be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days.
