1 Preheat oven to 350°F. 2 Beat egg yolks on high speed with an electric mixer until light. 3 Gradually add 3/4 cup of the sugar and beat 3 to 4 minutes longer. 4 Slowly pour in coffee (or orange juice) and beat 3 or 4 minutes more. 5 Combine potato starch, cake meal, and cocoa in a sifter. 6 Add gradually to yolk mixture, folding it in gently. 7 Beat egg whites until foamy. 8 Add remaining 1/2 cup sugar to egg whites, a little at a time, beating on high speed. Beat until stiff, but not dry. 9 Mix about 1/4 of the meringue into yolk mixture to lighten it. 10 Carefully fold in remaining meringue. 11 Pour batter evenly into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan. 12 Bake at 350°F for 1 hour. 13 Remove cake from oven and immediately invert cake pan onto a rack. 14 Let hang until completely cool. 15 Loosen cake from pan with a flexible spatula and carefully transfer to a serving plate. 16 If desired, serve with fresh strawberries. 17 Cake can be frozen, but package it carefully to prevent it from being crushed.
Additional Information
Guilt-free pleasure!
The only fat comes from the 3 egg yolks (most Passover cakes contain 6 to 9 eggs).
Separate 8 eggs, but discard 5 of the yolks (or mix with water and feed them to your plants!)
