INSTRUCTIONS
Separate eggs into large mixing bowls. Gradually beat 1 1/4 cups sugar
and salt into yolk mixture until very thick and light in color. Add
orange juice, rind, and wine; beat at high speed until thick and
light, about 3 minutes. Sift together meal, potato starch, and
cinnamon; gradually fold into orange mixture until smoothly blended.
Beat egg whites at highest speed until whites stand in peaks but are
not dry. Beating continuously, make meringue by beating remaining 1/4
cup sugar into whites, a tablespoon at a time. Fold meringue lightly
into mixture. Fold nuts into batter gently. Turn into ungreased 10
inch tube pan with bottom lined with waxed paper. Bake at 325 degrees
for 60 to 65 minutes or until cake springs back when touched lightly.
Invert pan on funnel or suspend over cooling rack. Allow to hang 45
minutes. While slightly warm, remove by running sharp thin-bladed
knife around side of pan with one long steady stroke. busted by sooz
