washing, until light. Add the remaining sugar 1 tablespoon at a time,
beating until mixture is thick and creamy. Add lemon juice and rind.
By hand, add the flour mixture gradually, beating until smooth. Fold
egg mixture into meringue until no streaks of white remain. Spread
batter evenly in prepared pan. Bake in a moderate oven 350~, for 15
minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched with
fingertips. Cool in pan on wire rack 5 minutes. Invert pan on a clean
cloth that has been generously sprinkled with confectioners sugar.
Carefully peel off paper. Trim off any crispy edges then roll up with
towel, starting at one of the short sides. Cool completely on wire
rack. Unroll cooled cake; spread with Super Lemon Filling. Re-roll,
then wrap firmly in wax paper, refrigerate until firm.

bubbles, 1 minute. Remove from heat. Beat half the hot cornstarch
mixture into beaten egg yolks, then stir back into saucepan. Cook one
minute longer. Stir in butter, lemon rind and juice. Place piece of
plastic wrap directly on filling to prevent skin forming. Refrigerate
