Essential Elements

Mixing Instructions
- Getting Egg Whites Ready
- Split cold eggs and let whites warm up naturally. Work with perfectly clean tools. Start beating at low speed, then gradually go faster. Drop in cream of tartar when whites look foamy. Keep beating until stiff peaks form.
- Creating Base Mix
- Blend cottage cheese till completely silky. Whip egg yolks until pale. Mix with cottage cheese, honey, and salt. Add cornstarch if you're using it.
- Merging Mixtures
- Gently stir one-third of whites into your base. Add remaining whites in two parts using gentle folding motions. Mix just enough to combine everything.
- Adding Berries
- Make sure fresh berries aren't wet before mixing them in. Use frozen berries without thawing. Scatter carefully throughout the batter.
Getting egg whites just right makes all the difference. With regular attempts, you'll master the fluffy, weightless quality that makes true cloud bread stand out.
Warmth Advice
Having everything at room temp really boosts how much your egg whites can expand. Let all ingredients warm up on their own before you start making the bread.
Keeping Fresh
Wrap in paper instead of plastic bags to keep the right texture. Try to eat within a few hours after it comes out of the oven.
