Indispensable : Gateau Roulé

Gateau roulé recipe (jelly roll recipe)


Ingredients (yield : one half sheet pan if thick, one sheet pan is thin)

  • 125 gr sugar
  • 5 eggs
  • 60 gr flour
  • 60 gr cornstarch

Procedure

  • Using a Kitchen Aid, mix sugar + eggs until you get the consistency of a ribbon (a few minutes)
  • Sift flour + cornstarch
  • Add it to the ribbon mixture carefully using a spatula
  • On a sheet pan layered with parchment paper, spread the mixture using an off-set spatula evenly to the edges.
  • Bake at 225 C./430 F. until the bottom starts to turn slightly brown (it goes fast!)
  • Place the baked dough on a table by removing the parchment paper from the sheet pan. Place another paper on top and place a kitchen towel on top (the humidity will help to remove the parchment while cooling down)
  • Roll the dough in the parchment paper and store in the fridge
  • Spread chocolate mousse or any fruit jam and roll...
