Mix the flour with the starch, baking powder, and baking soda. Beat the butter until fluffy, then fold in the sugar until it no longer crunches. Gradually add the eggs while beating for 5 minutes. Stir in the lemon zest. Then alternately fold in the flour mixture with the milk until a thick dough forms; add more milk if needed. Immediately pour into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake in the preheated oven. After 15 minutes, use a fork to make circular cuts on the surface of the cake. Return to the oven and bake on the middle rack for about 30 minutes. Do a toothpick test. When the cake is done, transfer it onto a cooling rack and let it cool.
