Preparation of the LEMON BUNDT CAKE
Place the eggs, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a bowl; beat with the whisks until light and fluffy.
Add the zest of one lemon.
Juice 2 or 3 lemons to obtain 1/3 cup of juice and add it to the mixture, filtering it through a sieve. Also add the lemon flavoring vial (if desired) and the vegetable oil. Mix everything with the electric whisks.
Add the flour, cornstarch, and baking powder by sifting them. Work with the whisks until you get a homogeneous mixture.
Pour the mixture into a greased and floured bundt pan with a diameter of 8.5 inches.
Bake in a preheated oven at 356°F static or 320°F fan-forced for about 45 minutes (if unsure of the cooking level, do the toothpick test). Leave the cake in the turned-off oven with the door slightly open for another 5 minutes.
Remove from the oven, allow the bundt cake to cool slightly, then remove it from the pan and let it cool completely, preferably on a wire rack.
Before serving the lemon bundt cake, sprinkle it with powdered sugar.
