Method 做法

01

Make the cheese base

Warm the cream cheese, butter and milk over a water bath until smooth, then cool slightly.

02

Add yolks and flour

Mix in the egg yolks one at a time. Sift in cake flour and cornstarch, then strain until smooth.

03

Whip the meringue

Whip egg whites with lemon juice and salt, adding sugar gradually, until glossy soft peaks form.

04

Prepare the water bath

Line and wrap a 6-inch pan, pour in the batter and place it in a tray of hot water.

05

Bake and score

Bake at 180°C top / 110°C bottom for 15–20 minutes. Score a shallow cross, then bake for another 10–15 minutes.

06

Finish slowly

Reduce the top heat to 150°C and bake for 60–70 minutes. Cool gradually before unmoulding.
