Japanese cheesecake

The recipe was created by Japanese chef Tomotaro Kuzuno, who was inspired by a local cheesecake (a German variant) during a trip to Berlin in the 1960s. It is less sweet and has fewer calories than standard Western-style cheesecakes, containing less cheese and sugar. The cake is made with cream cheese, butter, sugar, and eggs. Similar to chiffon cake or soufflé, Japanese cheesecake has a fluffy texture produced by whipping egg white and egg yolk separately. It is traditionally made in a bain-marie. The cake is the signature dish of Uncle Tetsu's Cheesecake, a Japanese bakery chain which originated in Hakata-ku, Fukuoka, in 1947. == Gallery ==
