From pianono |
I followed the recipe below from chef2chef:
Please note how I sequenced and did this by looking at the slideshow.
Ingredients
6 egg whites
6 tbsp sugar
6 egg yolks
6 tbsp sifted flour
Instructions
To 6 egg whites beaten until stiff, add the following by spoonfuls,
beating well after each addition 6 tablespoons sugar, then add 6
yolks of eggs (well beaten). Blend well. Cut and fold into the
mixture: 6 tablespoons sifted flour
Pour into a jelly roll pan lined with greased paper. Bake for 15
minutes at 400F. Turn out on another sheet of paper sprinkled with
sugar. Remove paper lining. Spread jam frosting over cake and roll.
Dust surface with sugar. Slice crosswise.
UPDATE as of 01-03-08 -- Due to the comments below (thanks to LBR and Luz), I am updating this post for a future experiment on this recipe. I think this will be wonderful in that this filling will not seep through the cake, especially if put in the fridge immediately after rolling (to harden it up). And while I am not a big fan of cheesecake because it is too rich for my palate, I do love it combined with something else to liven up the flavor.
ALTERNATIVE FILLING TO TRY:
1 pkg (8-oz) cream cheese
1/4 cup sugar
2 tbsp cold milk
1 & 1/4 cups of Cool Whip Whipped Topping, thawed (May have to add this gradually to check on the right consistency)
Beat cream cheese, sugar and milk in a bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add 1-1/4 cups of the whipped topping; mix well. Spread over cake and proceed as above.
Another possibility: 1 pkg cream cheese combined with 4 oz jam and 1/4 cup sugar with whipped cream

This looks like the jelly roll I made. I used a cream cheese filling once and sometimes whipped cream. I will definitely use your recipe and will let you know the outcome. Again, thanks.
Hi Manang, another recipe for me to try :) besides jam what alternative filling I can use?

Hi Wena, Welcome to my site. Buti naman and you found a lot of useful info from my kusina. I hope you enjoy making some of these goodies!
Ok, I love pianono and when I say love, I reaaaaaaally LOVE it. Everytime I get a chance to get them or when my families from NJ comes to visit I have them bring me a roll or 2, which also doesn't last long in our house with 2 kids and hubby that devours them as well. So when I saw this recipe I was so happpyyyyyy and excited to be able to make them.
I will let you know when I have made them and thanks so much for this recipe :-)
Thanks so much for the recipe. The pianono I had in the Philippines were baked by the nuns in my school. They were filled with either mango jam or a simple paste of butter and sugar. I'll bake a batch next week and will let you know how it turns out.:)
Hi Ailen,
Hmmm...let me see...Usually the pure egg whites will be stiff (beaten by whisk using electric beaters) within 2 minutes or so. Do not overbeat, though. It should still be shiny and should form stiff peaks. When they form what looks like broken pieces of sponge, they were overbeaten.
Thankyou Manang for replying sooner. Few more questions do I add the egg yolks when the egg whites are already stiff or do I add them on the process of making it stiff? same with sugar do I add them while making it stiff? Sorry I'm just a little bit confused. Thank you po ulit.
hello Manang its me again. I tried your recipe but it wasn't a success one for me. I think I messed up on cutting and folding the flour. After I baked it I could still see the flour. It didn't spread. Can you please help me on that part? thank you again.
this turned out really yummy! just as i remember eating it in the philippines when i was young. and yes, it was just margarine and sugar then, but i used a mixed berry jelly, and the pianono was still good. i've been brainstorming what else would taste good as a filling.chocolate frosting?
hello po,
tanong ko lang po kung yung flour na gagamitin eh all purpose flour or cake flour?
thanks.
thanks for the reply. i tried it & it was good.
this is really good
med flores,
Thanks for your feedback!
