Red velvet recipe

ingredient RED VELVET CAKE

295 gr low protein flour
22 g cocoa powder (light brown)
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
115 gr unsalted butter (unsalted butter)
350 gr granulated sugar (me: 280 gr)
2 chicken eggs
120 ml of oil
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp vinegar / white vinegar (me: apple cider vinegar)
320 ml buttermilk
2 tsp red coloring to taste

Notes:
*) the darker the cocoa powder, the darker red velvet will be
*) granulated sugar should be puree / blender first. Because the red velvet cake is only made for a short time so that the sugar dissolves completely
*) in this recipe using a combination of butter & oil. Trust me, the cake is really soft
*) vinegar is mandatory, yes, to emphasize the color
*) You can make your own buttermilk, or if you are lazy to make buttermilk you can use yogurt. Back again to the HPP calculation, yes, the capital is bigger if you use yogurt.

Here’s the buttermilk recipe:

20 ml of lemon/lime/vinegar juice
300 ml fresh milk

Mix lemon juice & fresh milk. Stir well. Leave it for 5-10 minutes. The final result is thick consistency (curdled)
It’s better before preparing the ingredients, we make/process the buttermilk first. If there is excess, buttermilk can be stored in the freezer (Can be reused, just not fresh *I’ve never)
