Chef's Notes


Preheat the oven for 20 to 30 minutes before placing the cake.
Ingredients must be at room temperature to help the batter come together and the cake to bake evenly.
Do not open the oven door before 10 minutes from the baking time.
You can omit the cornmeal and replace it with flour.
Instead of all-purpose flour, you can go for cake flour for a more tender crumb.
You can add the nuts you prefer; make sure they are toasted for more flavor.
You can freeze the cake by cutting it into slices, wrapping each slice with plastic wrap, and placing the bag in a freezer-friendly bag for up to 3 months.
