Method
1.
Preheat the oven to 120 °C (air circulation)

For the sponge: whisk the egg yolks, egg and sugar until thick and fluffy. Add the lemon peel and salt. Sieve the flour and carefully fold into the mixture. Pour into a piping bag with a 1 cm nozzle.
4.
Line 2 baking trays with baking paper. Pipe three 45 cm long strips of meringue onto each baking tray, leaving a 1.5 cm gap between each strip. Pipe the sponge mixture into the gaps. Bake in the preheated oven for approx. 30 minutes.

Remove from the oven, tip upside down immediately onto a sheet of baking paper and carefully peel the baking paper off of the back.

Lay one of the meringue and sponge bases into a baking frame (approx. 9 x 45 cm). Fill with the cream and top with the second base.
