Steps:

• Prepare the berries: Toss the strawberries with lemon juice and sugar to combine. Let macerate at room temperature 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, make the biscuits: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Whisk to combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut the butter into the flour mixture until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 1 cup cream and stir with a fork just until dough starts to come together but is still crumbly.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a rough 6-inch square, about 1 inch thick. With a 2 1/2-inch round cutter dipped in flour, cut four biscuits from dough and place them, evenly spaced, on a parchment- lined baking sheet. Gather dough scraps together, fold once, and gently pat into a rectangle; cut out two more biscuits. Whisk egg and remaining 1 tablespoon cream, then brush egg wash over tops of dough rounds. Chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
• Bake until tops are golden brown, rotating sheet halfway through, about 25 minutes. Transfer biscuits to a wire rack and let cool slightly.
• When ready to serve, whip cream in a chilled bowl until soft peaks form. Split biscuits in half, and place a bottom half on each plate. Top generously with berries and their juice, then with remaining biscuit halves and dollops of whipped cream. Scatter a few more strawberries on top and around each plate.

Steps:

• Mix together the egg yolks, sugar, water, and lemon juice. Beat together at medium speed until light and fluffy. Add the matza cake meal, potato starch, lemon rind and orange rind very gradually to the egg yolk mixture. Make the addition as if you are shaking powder (this is the key to it not falling). It should take 5 minutes or more to add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture. Beat the egg whites and salt separately until the egg whites are just a little beyond the soft peak stage. Fold the egg white mixture gently but thoroughly into the cake batter. Pour into an ungreased 10" tube pan. Bake on the middle rack at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until the cake springs back when touched lightly. Cool completely inverted. Remove from pan when cool. Serve with big red strawberries (and whipped cream if you want to cheat).
