Hello. This is Joeconde.
This week's cake is Melon Cake!!
Melon is delicious. I am sure that many people have the desire to make melon into a cake.
I also tried it a few years ago.
But it failed several times.
Even if melon is mixed with gelatin or hard cream, or frozen, it melts as soon as it comes out at room temperature.
As some of you may know, this is because melons contain a proteolytic enzyme called cucusimin.
So I couldn't make melon cake.
But recently, I thought that boiling melon would destroy the enzymes, so I wondered if it could be made into a cake. So I tested it. Melon juice was boiled and simmered to make cream and jelly. The results were very good. Melon cream and jelly did not melt. The melon flavor was still there.
So, today I am going to share with you the recipe.
