  As the name implies, a chiffon cake is a light, high cake--actually
  a hybrid of an angle and butter cake. Serve this cake plain, with
  lemon curd, with whipped cream or with a nest of strawberries in
  the center.

  Lightly grease a 10" tube or bundt cake pan. Preheat oven to
  325?F. Sift together the cake flour, sugar, baking powder, and
  salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and add oil, lemon
  juice, water, egg yolks, and lemon zest. Beat until smooth. Beat
  egg whites until foamy, then dust with cream of tartar. Beat until
  the whites are stiff and glossy-looking. Stir 1/4th of the beaten
  egg whites into the cake batter. Gently fold in the remaining egg
  whites. Pour into prepared tube or bundt pan. Bake about 55 minutes
  in preheated oven until cake tests done. Remove from oven and
  invert pan. Let cake cool this way for about 1 hour.

  To loosen the cake for serving, run a knife around the edges.
  Unmold on to serving plate and glaze, if desired, then garnish with
  shreds of lemon zest.

  Lemon Glaze:

  Combine 2 cups sifted icing sugar and 3 tb fresh lemon juice to
  make a thin glaze.
