Unfortunately, they aren't printing that recipe anymore -- anyone out there have the old recipe? Thanks!

Add water, lemon rind (and orange rind, if used) and lemon juice. Beat thoroughly. Gradually (to avoid lumps,) lightly mix in cake meal and potato starch. Beat egg whites with salt until stiff but not dry. Mix a bit of the beaten egg white into the batter to lighten it. Fold the rest into the batter gently but thoroughly. Pour into an ungreased 9-inch tube pan. Bake in a slow oven (325 degrees F) for 1 1/4 hours or until cake springs back when touched lightly. Invert pan over a bottle and cool thoroughly before removing cake. Mon Mar 01 13:57:44 -0800 2004 1437080 0 Nancy Berry 2 1437127 BTW, my mother uses this recipe and we always enjoy it. A special treat is shaving a bar of Elite parve bittersweet chocolate into the batter. Thu Mar 04 16:09:37 -0800 2004 1437082 0 Tina
