Angel Food Cake

1 c. flour, sin preparada
1/2 c. sugar
Mix in a bowl and set aside.

1 1/2 c. egg whites (12 eggs)
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. cream of tartar (available in downtown Lima at the confectionary shops)
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 c. sugar
Beat egg whites with the salt, cream of tartar, and vanilla until foamy. Add 1 cup of sugar in small portions until the eggs whites hold a stiff peak. Gently fold in the flour mixture using a spatula in 4 parts. Spoon into a tube pan that has been sprayed or greased. Circle twice with a knife to break any air pockets. Bake at 350 * for 1 hour. Cool upside down for an additional hour, then remove. Enjoy!
