Tips and Trick

• From America's Test Kitchen, it's better to overbeat the whites than to underbeat. Really stiff egg whites will give chiffon cakes better volume
• From Beranbaum, using more whites than yolks help with the structure of the cake
• Inverting the cake as soon as it's done and leaving it to cool for several hours in that position helps the cake to hold its shape
• You must not grease your chiffon cake pan (and yes, you need a chiffon cake pan, don't ask me how I know) so that the cake will not fall
