I love cheesecakes very much, especially Japanese Cheesecake. This cotton soft cheesecake is so light, as light as a cotton, and so yummy. When I see Japanese Cheesecake, I just cannot resist, I can finish half the cake in no time. One spoon after another, can't stop myself...nom, nom, nom! Enjoy eating! Japanese Cheesecake You'll need: 8" round cake pan parchment paper - lightly grease and line the bottom and sides of the pan with parchment paper (a) Egg white 4 egg white 100g sugar 1tsp lemon juice (or 1/2 tsp cream of tartar) (b) Cheese 200g cream cheese 170g milk 60g unsalted butter 30g sugar (c) Egg yolk 4 egg yolk 50g cake and pastry flour 20g cornstarch 50g milk Steps: 2.

ReplyDeletehi,
ReplyDeletewhat it means by bake in an inch water bath ? underneath the round cake pan must have water?
water bath method is using a larger pan that contain about one or two inches of water, and place your cheesecake pan in it. This way, your cheesecake surface will not cracks because you bake it in a high moisted oven.
