Basque Cheesecake

  

How can two words ignite such a fire within me? Such simple ingredients, little adornment but precise technique makes this a pure wonder. Its divine, I cannot say more than that, like velvet to the palate, the joy lies in its texture, like fresh woven silk.

 

My Main tips for success are:

 

1.     Only mix on a low speed, you do not want to incorporate any excess air, so take your time and mix slow.

2.     Do not be shy with the salt, the fact that this straddles the hiatus between sweet and savoury is its beauty.

3.     Create a liaison batter, this means that the texture remains homogenous and silky without the need to overmix.

4.     Even if your cheesecake is not blackened to your liking, do not be tempted to bake any longer. You need that silky texture inside, the most stunning spoonful ever…
