Step by step instruction of cooking Cake with whole oranges, almonds and syrup of a dessert wine

Шаг 1

Place 2 oranges in a large pot and cover with cold water. On high heat bring to a boil. Drain the water. Repeat this procedure. This will reduce the bitterness of the rind.

After you twice brought the oranges to the boil and twice poured water, again fill the oranges with cold water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and boil the oranges for 1 hour, adding water as needed to oranges it was completely covered. Ready oranges should be very soft.
Drain the water and leave the oranges for 2 hours to cool to room temperature.

Шаг 8

Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Smooth the surface with a spoon.

With orange you need to remove the zest and squeeze the juice. Place the juice, zest, wine and remaining sugar in a saucepan. Put on medium heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved.

Increase the heat and bring to a boil. Cook without stirring for 2-3 minutes so syrup thickens a little. Remove from heat.

Ready cake invert on a plate. Soak it with the syrup while warm. The cake takes very good syrup. I infused the cake with all the available syrup, adding also a little under the cake to satiate and bottom. But you can leave some of the syrup for serving.
Let the cake cool 30 minutes.

Шаг 12

Cut the cake into pieces and place on plates. Pour the remaining syrup and serve with whipped cream.
