Hey there! To achieve that dreamy, fluffy texture in Japanese cheesecake, start by making sure your cream cheese is really soft before mixing. This helps prevent lumps and ensures a smooth batter. When you whip the egg whites, beat them until they form stiff peaks; this is key to that light and airy structure. Also, don’t overmix once you combine everything—gentle folding helps keep that volume. Baking in a water bath can also keep the temperature even and prevent cracks. Happy baking, and enjoy the magic of Japanese cheesecake!

To get that perfect fluffy Japanese cheesecake, make sure to beat your egg whites until they form stiff peaks, then gently fold them into the batter to maintain the airiness. Also, baking it in a water bath helps keep the cheesecake moist and prevents cracking. Low and slow is key—bake at a lower temperature for a longer time for that signature light texture! Happy baking!

I’ve found that folding the whipped egg whites gently into the batter really makes a difference, though! It helps keep that light texture.
