Matcha souffle cheesecake
Enjoy the fluffy, bouncy texture and the subtle aroma of matcha (Tenkuu) that spreads in your mouth.
<Ingredients> 18cm round mold with removable bottom
- 120g cream cheese
- 80g unsalted butter
- 120g milk
- 60g plain flour
- Matcha (Tenkuu) 10g
- 4 egg yolks
- 4 egg whites
- 100g granulated sugar
<How to make>
- Preheat the oven to 250°C. Line a baking mold with baking paper.
- Heat the cream cheese, unsalted butter and milk to about 60°C and mix together until creamy.
- Sift together the flour and matcha, then add to ② and mix until there are no more powdery parts.
- Add the egg yolks to Step 3 and mix. Strain through a fine mesh sieve.
- Beat the egg whites. First, add all the granulated sugar and mix slowly with a hand mixer at low speed to make a fine meringue. Make a loose meringue that drips easily when scooped and dropped, leaving a line.
- Add ⑤ to ③ and mix gently.
- Pour into the mold. Place two baking sheets on top of the mold and pour boiling water into the first sheet to bake in a water bath. Be careful not to pour hot water into the second sheet so that water does not get into the mold. Place in the oven and bake at 250°C for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 120°C and bake for 30 minutes.
- Once cooked, remove from the mold. Be careful as it will be very soft.
