Make the Crust - 做底部
Step1:
Preheat oven to325°F Have 4 ounces of graham crackers, 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, and 4 tablespoons of melted butter ready to make the crust. Note: This makes a very thin crust, I usually double it to 8 ounce, it's up to you. |
第一步:
將烤箱預熱到325°F 準備好 4 ounces of graham crackers, 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, and 4 tablespoons of melted butter 作底。 Ps. 這做出來的底很薄,我通常都 X2 用到8ounce做厚一點,看個人喜好。 |
Making the Cheese Filling
Step 7
While baking the crust and letting it cool, assemble and prepare the filling: 2-1/2 pounds cream cheese (at room temperature), 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1-3/4 cup sugar, 1/8 tsp. salt, 2 tsp. lemon juice, 1 tsp. vanilla extract, 2 large egg yolks, and 6 large eggs. |
第七步:
當底在冷卻時,開始準備蛋糕。 2-1/2 pounds cream cheese (at room temperature), 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1-3/4 cup sugar, 1/8 tsp. salt, 2 tsp. lemon juice, 1 tsp. vanilla extract, 2 large egg yolks, and 6 large eggs. |
Step 8:
Cut the cream cheese into small chunks and place the pieces into work bowl of a standing mixer. Beat the cheese on low until smooth, about two or three minutes. It may be easier to beat half the cream cheese first, followed by the second half. Once the cheese is smooth, add the salt and about a third of the sugar. Beat until integrated and scrape down the sides. Add another third of the sugar and continue to mix until the sugar is mixed in. Then add the final third of sugar and mix in. Optionally, three tablespoons of flour can be added with the sugar to help add a bit of stability to the cake. Adding flour will not affect the taste or texture of the cake, but will reduce the likelihood of a cracked cake. Add the lemon juice and vanilla extract and mix. Note: You can use your finger to taste it, you might not need to add all the sugar if you don't like it that sweet. |
第八步:
把 cream cheese 沏小塊放入碗中 把cheese打到柔軟為止。一半一半用會比較好打。 Cheese 打好後,加入鹽巴跟1/3的糖 邊打時邊把邊緣刮一刮。再加入1/3的糖直到唐拌均勻,再把剩下的1/3的糖加入。 可以加入3tbs的麵粉,會幫助蛋糕不易裂開,也不會影像到口感。 加入檸檬汁根香草汁,攪拌。 注意事件: 在做時,可以用手只是吃口味,不一定要加入所有的糖,如果喜歡淡一點的話。 |
Step 11
Now add three whole eggs and mix until the eggs have been completely mixed into the filling. Scrape down the sides and beat in the final three eggs. Now, pour the filling into the springform pan onto the cooled crust. A 10-inch pan should fill up to almost its rim with this filling. Lift the pan an inch or two above your counter or cutting board and drop it to bring any bubbles trapped inside to the surface. Place the springform pan onto a sheetpan (for easy handling and safety), and slide into the middle of an oven preheated to 500°F. |
第十一步:
加入3顆蛋,攪拌,在加入剩下的3顆蛋攪拌均勻。 把作好的cheese filling 倒入10吋的蛋糕盤裏。 把整盤舉起,離桌面大概1吋之遠,將蛋糕放下,把泡泡震出來。 把蛋糕盤放在一個長方形的烤盤上,會比較好拿。 將蛋糕放入以預溫到500度的烤箱中間。 |
Step 12
After ten minutes, reduce the temperature to 200°F and allow the cheesecake to bake as the oven gradually reduces temperature (do not open the oven door). Bake the cheesecake until the center of the cake registers as 150°F (making sure it does not exceed 160°F), about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Feel free to use an instant read thermometer in the center of the cake - a slightly blemish is worth a perfect cake. Note: By meassuring the temp of the cake, will make it more likly to crack, but still taste good!! |
第十二步:
10分鐘後,將溫到降到200度,繼續烤。讓溫度慢慢降低,不要打開烤箱門。 烤到蛋糕中間150到不要超過160度,大約1小時30分鐘。 注意: 如果梁溫度,可能會造成蛋糕裂開,但還是會很好吃。 |
Note:
The cake will not fully set until fully chilled, but the cooling process should be gradual. First remove the cake from the oven and onto a cooling rack. After a about ten minutes, run a paring knife along the rim of the cake to release it from the walls of the pan. This will reduce the risk of cracking as the cake contracts and tries to pull away from the walls of the pan. Joy of Cooking also recommends the practice of covering the pan with a large bowl for added insurance. The bowl helps keep the heat in as well as some moisture which further slows down the cooling process. After about two to three hours of cooling, wrap the pan tightly in plastic wrap and place the cake into the refrigerator to chill for at least five hours.
Remove the cake from the refrigerator about thirty minutes before serving and slice with a sharp knife. Use a tall glass of warm water to dunk the knife into between cuts to make slicing easier.
注意事件:
蛋糕還會水水的,所以要放到涼之後才能食用。 蛋糕取出烤箱時,放到冷卻架上。 大約10分鐘後,用軟刀原著邊邊劃一圈,鬆開烤盤。這樣蛋糕縮小時才不會因為年再邊邊而裂開。
還可以用大的碗把蛋糕蓋住,這樣蛋糕才不會冷卻太快,才不會造成裂痕。大開2-3小時冷卻後,用保鮮膜包住放入冰箱,大約5個小時。
Strawberry Topping/草莓配料
Buy forzen strawberries, add desired amount of honey and sugar to it. Deforst over night. Serve with Cheese Cake
買冷凍的草莓,放入蜂蜜或糖,自己調味。隔夜解凍。跟Cheese蛋糕一起食用。
