Steps:
- Grease two 9-inch round cake pans. Line each pan with a round of waxed paper; butter paper. Dust paper and sides of pans with flour; tap off excess.
- Place the eggs and sugar in a heatproof bowl; set bowl over pan of hot (not boiling) water. Beat at medium speed until mixture feels tepid, about 2 minutes. Remove from hot water. Continue beating until thick, light in color and tripled in volume, about 15 minutes.
- Sift flour several times with salt, then sift mixture, one half at a time, directly over egg mixture, gently folding in after each addition. Drizzle clarified butter very lightly over batter; fold in gently.
- Pour batter into prepared pans, dividing evenly. Bake 12 to 15 minutes at 400 degrees, until cake is golden brown. Remove from oven; invert pans on wire racks to release cake layers. Gently peel away waxed paper; let layers cool to room temperature.
- To use for tiramis u, cut each layer in half and then cut halves into strips 1 to 1 1/2 inches wide.
