Japanese Soft Sponge Cake

I wanted to make Japanese sponge cake using glutenous foreign flour!
I thought the sponge using corn starch was slightly lighter, so here's my tryout.

Make sure to whisk the eggs and sugar well as it warms over hot water.
If you're using 50 g of flour, use 65 g of wheat starch. The resulting sponge will be different according to the amount of wheat starch, so adjust to your liking.
You can buy wheat starch at a Chinese supermarket. Comes in yellow bag, I think? For 15 cm [5.9 in] square cake pan. Recipe by Mon*chou-chou*
