Flour by all the rules!
If the eggs are beaten to a lush and airy foam, then it is already 70%
of success. Biscuit from such a mass will definitely work out if it is not
spoil the flour. Very often the error is its quantity. In
In many recipes, it is indicated by glasses, but for all of them
different volume. If there is a lot of flour, the cake is hard,
dense, it quickly stale.

for beating, the flour is injected without fail to the yolks, and then with
stirring added fluffy protein mass.
