+## Directions
+
+### Cake
+
++ Place rack in low position and heat oven to 350 F (175 C).
++ Grease and flour 9-inch by 5-inch loaf pan.
++ In a medium bowl, rub together sugar and lemon zest until mixture is fragrant, about 30 seconds.
++ Whisk flour and baking powder in a second medium bowl.
++ Whisk eggs and vanilla in a third medium bowl.
++ In a fourth bow, beat butter and salt on med-high speed until shiny, smooth, and creamy, 2 to 3 minutes, scraping down bowl as needed.
++ Slowly add lemon-sugar mixture and continue to beat until mixture is fluffy and almost white in color, 5 to 8 minutes, scraping down bowl as needed.
++ Add egg mixture in slow, steady stream and continue to beat mixture until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes, scraping down bowl as needed (mixture may look slightly broken).
++ On low speed, add 1/3 of the flour mixture, beat until just combined, then add milk and lemon juice and beat until combined.
++ Add another 1/3 of the flour mixture, beat until just combined, then repeat with remaining flour.
++ Thoroughly scrape down and stir bowl.
++ Transfer batter to prepared loaf pan and smooth surface with rubber spatula.
++ Bake until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean, about 1 hour 15 min.
++ Once cake is baked, cool cake in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then turn cake out onto rack.
+
+### Syrup
+
++ In a small saucepan, stir together sugar and lemon juice and cook over med-high heat until sugar dissolves.
++ Simmer for 2 min, remove from heat, and set aside.
++ Brush top and sides of still-warm cake with syrup and cool completely, about 2 hours.
+
+### Glaze
+
++ In a small bowl, whisk powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth.
++ Spread glaze over cake after cake is completely cool, allowing some to drip down sides.
++ Garnish with additional lemon zest.
++ Let glaze set for at least 15 min before serving.
+
+## Note
+
++ If cake starts to turn too dark before it is fully baked, cover loosely with aluminum foil until fully cooked.
