What key technique distinguishes this recipe, and what are its primary effects on the cake's texture and flavor?

This recipe adapts Claudia Roden's orange and almond cake, replacing almonds with flour and adding cardamom for a Christmas twist. The key technique of boiling and blending whole oranges remains, contributing moisture, richness, and a distinct flavor profile. The result is a vegan-friendly cake, baked in a 20cm springform tin and served with vegan creme fraiche or ice cream.
