Thursday, May 03, 2007 Japanese Styled Cheese Cake [[Sunshine on a plate]] Finally got the book Harumi's Home Cooking from the kino sale. I've been eyeing it for quite awhile. My sis and I were craving for cheese cake so J and I decided to try this one out on tuesday. It turned out really nicely- nicely browned on the top. The texture is really soft and light when you eat it straight from the oven. When placed in the fridge, it becomes denser in texture. Both of which are quite nice though I think the unrefrigerated one is slightly better. I should try to add more lemon zest next time or maybe throw in some lime zest as well. Just think that citrusy flavoured cheesecake taste good. Harumi's Baked Cheesecake
