Lime Angel Food Cake with Lime Glaze and PistachiosStephen Lewis

Finely grated lime peel, a tangy lime glaze, and crunchy pistachios brighten up this old-school favorite.

Test-kitchen tip:

Be sure not to use a nonstick pan or to grease or butter the cake pan for this cake. Because this cake is cooled upside down, you want it to stick to the sides a bit. If your angel food cake pan doesn’t have feet, have a metal funnel or a bottle with a slim neck nearby. You'll invert the tube of the pan onto the funnel or bottle as soon as the cake comes out of the oven.
