Recently, many friends have come to me to reflect that when making cheesecake, there will always be a lot of small mistakes, which will lead to the cake not taste good, collapse or cracks.
Today, chef He, who has been making desserts for 17 years, was invited to teach us the authentic method of cheesecake. Master He said that if you want to make a smooth and delicate, refreshing and silky cheesecake, it is not difficult, as long as you master his know-how, even if you do it for the first time, you can make a delicious cake with ease, and you definitely don't lose the store!
ingredient:
Cream cheese 125g, animal light cream 50g, yogurt 75g, eggs 2, low gluten flour 33g, caster sugar 50g.
method:
1. Beat the cream cheese in hot water with an egg whisk until smooth and particle-free, then add milk, yogurt, animal cream and beat evenly.
2. Pour the cheese paste into a large bowl with egg yolks and whisk well with an egg beater.
3. Sift in low flour, use a spatula to stir the cheese paste and low flour in an irregular direction until completely fused without particles. Then put it in the refrigerator and set aside! (At this time, you can preheat the oven, up and down the heat 140 degrees)
4. Beat the egg white to a coarse bubble (fish eye bubble) at medium speed in an egg beater, add 1/3 of the fine granulated sugar, continue to beat at medium speed until the protein volume is 1 times larger, then add 1/3 of the fine granulated sugar, and add the remaining caster sugar when the lines begin to appear. Until you hit a small corner that can pull up the bend.
5. Remove the cheese paste that has been refrigerated to a thick consistency, pour 1/3 of the meringue in and stir well. Avoid making circles while stirring, then add the remaining 2/3 of the mering cream and continue to stir into a delicate and thick cake paste.
6. Take a 6-inch mold, smear the inside wall with melted butter (easy to remove), and then pour in the mixed cake paste. Scrape well with a spatula.
7. Find another container to put about 80 degrees of hot water, after the mold is put in, the water level reaches half the height of the mold, then put it into the oven, set 120 degrees on the upper and lower heat, bake for 100 minutes. Observe at any time during baking, turn down the temperature when there are signs of cracking and add an appropriate amount of cold water to the hot water. When you are about to bake, insert a toothpick into the middle to indicate that it is cooked.
8. After baking, don't rush to take it out, and when it has cooled to about the same room temperature, then release the mold.
Top 5 Tips when making:
1. The mold is placed in a dish filled with hot water to bake, and the steam generated during the heating process can make the cheesecake more moist and smooth. However, during the production process, we must pay attention to observation, when the water boils, add an appropriate amount of cold water to cool down.
2. The mold should be selected from a solid bottom non-stick mold, not only the bottom should be padded with oil paper, the four walls should be coated with butter, and the outside should also be wrapped around a circle, otherwise the water will affect the taste. These points are very important, otherwise it is particularly easy to shrink the waist and deform.
3. The stirred cheese paste, remember to refrigerate for a long time, so that it can become thick.
4. This bread is required to be sent to neutral and wet, so the process of sending must not be excessive, which is also one of the important factors that the surface of the cake does not crack.
5. During the baking process, it should be observed at any time, the temperature is too high will make the cake crack, then you should pay attention to adjusting the temperature or adding an appropriate amount of cold water.
The above is the practice shared by Master He for everyone, as well as the common problems and tips of the production process, the light cheesecake made by himself is not only fragrant and dense, melting in the mouth, but also healthy and additive-free, clean and hygienic, whether it is a gathering of friends, or sharing with family is an extremely delicious choice.
