Jijona turron, a treasure of Spanish gastronomy, is much more than an ingredient: it is an invitation to a sensory journey. Made with ground almonds, quality honey, and eggs, this tender turron reflects a rich tradition and expertise passed down from generation to generation. Incorporating Jijona Turron into a cake recipe is combining tradition and innovation to create a sweet rich in history and flavor.
Preheating: Begin by preheating your oven to 180 degrees Celsius, a crucial step for even baking.
Flavor Fusion: In a saucepan, gently melt the Jijona Turron with the butter until smooth and creamy. Then, let it cool.
Whisk to Lighten: Meanwhile, in a bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar until the mixture turns pale and frothy, indicating that air has been well incorporated.
Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gently add the sifted flour and baking powder to your mixture, mixing just enough to combine, without overworking the dough.
Mixing Magic: Next, incorporate the warmed butter and turron mixture into your machine. Stir gently until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.
Perfect Baking Time: Pour the mixture into a buttered and floured mold, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. The trick to knowing when the cake is ready? Insert a knife blade into the center; it should come out clean.
Your Jijona Turron cake is ready to eat. Let it cool before unmolding and cutting into generous slices. This cake can be enjoyed with coffee, as a dessert, or during an afternoon gourmet break.
