different kinds of cheesecakes
(lemmy.ml)
Just put it in my mouth.
German here 👋 When I ate my first American Cheesecake in the US I actually thought that something was wrong with it and I let the others at my table which were all Americans taste as well. They all said it was alright. It was pure sweet and almost inedible for my German cheese cake taste. I never ate one after that experience 😅
I went to the US in the early '90s, I tried a McDonalds to see if it tasted the same as an Australian version, i couldn't eat it, I had one bite.. went wtf, again, gagged a little and gave up, the bun was toxic sweet. i initially assumed it was a joke that staff had played, putting sugar on the burger becase of my accent or something but no that's just how sweet it tastes apparently
That same influence in The Philippines, the bread there is mostly inedible, so sweet, similarly pastas etc
Can we have a shout out to no-bake cheesecakes, it’s literally a whole genre of cakes!
Random fruit toppings, flavoured cheese, fruit or chocolate in the cheese, goddamn Oreo base, modern recipes are fun!
Kasekuchen looks so good
Basque? That ought to be in there. Had one in Barcelona that was amazing. Tried to make one at home and it just seemed flat compared to the Spanish one.

They misspelled Käsekuchen.
Maybe they just ran out of dots.
Luckily there is a rule for that. You just add an "e". Germans will know when they read Kaese that it means Käse(cheese).
ä=ae ö=oe ü=ue
And bonus ß=ss

You missed one of the most famous styles? Basque Cheesecake
I have tried the German and New York and they were both good in different ways.
that polish shit looks like it fucks
I seriously think the fluffy Japanese kind are way overrated. Although, there is this chain called Pablo that makes droopy cheese cake in a tart shell. I dunno if there's a specific name for that kind of cheesecake; I really like those. I also like Käsekuchen and NY style.
No Italian ricotta cheesecake? For shame!
I kid, but I seriously recommend people try it. Crust optional, filling is a combo of ricotta and marscapone cheese with butter and sour cream. Wonderful as-is, but even better with strawberry or raspberry sauce.
Made a honey and poppy seed ricotta cheesecake once with sweet marscarpone on the side. It was delicious.

You’re missing basque style
No bake cheesecake (no gelatin) is the best kind
The whole point here is: NO RAISINS!
Who’s putting raisins in a cheesecake…?

Käsekuchen ist immer lecker
Sweden would like to join the chat
I tried this and was gravely disappointed 😔
Käsekuchen is my favourite out of the three I’ve tried. It’s incredibly well balanced in flavours. It’s a shame Quark is almost completely unheard of outside German/Slavic countries.
I hate this image now I'm hungry.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
