In reply to Amanda. This is normal. Use a spatula to stir continuously so that it can flow.

The moment I added the flour my egg mixture deflated. Is this normal? It went from big and fluffy and puffy to dense in moments

In reply to lucy c. Hi,lucy Cake flour is lower protein flour, comparing than APF. It is widely used in baking because of its lighter and softer texture. If you don't have it on hand, you can substitute it by using a mixture of all-purpose flour and cornstarch

What is ‘cake flour’ in everyday language (never come across this term)?
Is it plain flour or self raising flour?

In reply to Jean. Hi,Jean Glad you like Sichuan cuisine too. Most of the time I translate directly based on the ingredients and cooking methods of the dish. If some dishes are very famous abroad, they may have specific names, so I will use the names agreed upon before.
