Instructions to make Fluffy Citrus earl grey Cotton Chiffon cake:

1. Brew the tea bags in hot milk until a deep caramel color for 12-15 minutes and squeeze out the tea bags.
2. Chill the hot tea in fridge until cold
3. I'm a medium heavy bottom sauce pot, heat up the oil until it leaves skinny streaks when swirled around slightly
4. Take it off the heat immediately and add the sifted cake flour with the cold tea mixture and stir its a spatula quickly until combined
5. Next add the whole egg and egg yolk one at a time stirring until combined after each addition
6. Add in the crushed tea leave and the orange zest and mix until smooth and shiny, if too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of cold milk (the batter should be thick and flowing slowly like lava)
7. Strain the mixture for extra smoothness and set aside
8. In the clean grease free bowl of a stand or hand mixer, add in the room temperature egg white along with the pinch of salt and whip on medium until foamy.
9. Add the sugar gradually in three additions until firm peaks form, firmer than soft peak but not quite vertically stiff like stiff peak stage(should still have a slight hook to one side when held upside down)
10. With whisk, incorporate a third of the meringue mixture into the egg yolk mixture until homogenous.
11. Then with a spatula, fold in egg yolk mixture back into the bowl of the meringues until you see no more lumps or streaks
12. Pour the batter into prepared 9 x5 loaf pan or 8 inch cake tin with only the bottom lined with parchment and the sides not greased
13. Smooth out the top with spatula and tap on counter to remove large air bubbles
14. Set the cake pan in a hot water bath 1/4 inch deep water
15. Bake in a preheated 340 F oven for 15 minutes and 315 for another 40 minutes in the middle rack or lower third rack for toaster ovens
16. Let cake cool in the pan to prevent it from collapsing too much
17. Once cooled, invert onto serving platter and refrigerate over night covered for best results
