material
| Material name | amount | Remarks/Calories |
|---|---|---|
| Japanese mustard spinach (Brassica rapa var. perviridis) | 80g | parboil and then squeeze |
| Egg (L size) | three (used in legal documents) | normal or average or fixed temperature |
| granulated sugar | 70g | For Fabric |
| weak flour | 60g | screened |
| salad oil | 1 tablespoon | – |
| fresh cream | 200ml | – |
| kiwi | two (objects) | stick-like |
Approximate total calories: 280 kcal per person
way of making
[Process 1] Place komatsuna and salad oil in a blender to make a smooth jade-colored paste.
Process 2] Beat the egg whites with a hand mixer to make a meringue. It is a matter of time until the mixture becomes stiff peaks.
[Step 3] Combine the egg yolks and komatsuna paste, and stir in a portion of the meringue to blend.
Add the flour and mix with a rubber spatula to “cut” the mixture. Add the remaining meringue and mix gently and quickly.
Process 5] Bake in a 170°C oven for 12 minutes. Check the baking time for elasticity.
[Step 6] Spread the cream, roll up the kiwi at once with the kiwi as the core, and let rest in the refrigerator to complete the cake.

This is the secret to the delicious taste! Key Points
The most important point is the water content of the komatsuna. Squeezing it firmly will stabilize the texture of the dough. Also, when mixing the meringue, the key is not to crush the air bubbles to maintain the fluffy texture.
Examples of mistakes we tend to make
Cracks in the dough: If you try to roll the dough before it cools down after baking, it will harden and crack. The correct way is to roll it while it is still a little warm.
Dough does not expand: If there is too much water left in the komatsuna paste, the weight will make it difficult for the dough to expand.

At the end.
Thank you for reading to the end. If you refrigerate it well, the cream and sponge will unite and become more delicious. We hope you will try making it!
