Make sure you have all of the ingredients measured out and ready to go before you begin baking.

TIPS FOR BAKING AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Even while DIY and handmade Japanese cheesecake is reasonably simple, there are possible issues if the cake does not turn out perfectly.
Here are some suggestions and strategies for getting the greatest, jiggly, and perfect outcome like O Ba San Used to Make:
Make sure your cream cheese mixture is smooth and not lumpy.
To get the most volume out of the meringue, use room temperature eggs.
Make certain that your egg whites are beaten until soft peaks form. We don't want stiff peaks, so don't overbeat.
DO NOT OVERMIX the meringue and cream cheese batter. Fold very carefully; do not whisk or combine as the meringue bubbles will disappear.
Leave the cake in the oven with the oven door open to avoid a fast dip in oven temperature and room temperature. This will prevent the cake from losing volume and sinking.
Please use a water bath during baking to avoid cracking at the top. The steam from the water will flow throughout the oven, reducing cracking at the top.
Bake the cake near the bottom of the oven to avoid overbrowning.

Fold the cream cheese mixture into the meringue gradually until completely combined.
Fill the springform pan halfway with the mixture. Before baking, gently tap the cake pan. In a pan, Japanese cheesecake.
Using a hot water bath, bake the cake.
Place the cake pan in a bigger pan and fill the larger pan with 1 inch of boiling water. 1 hour 10 minutes on the lowest shelf of the oven.
Allow the Japanese cheesecake to cool in the oven for about 30 minutes with the oven door open. This will prevent the cake from shrinking due to a quick shift in temperature. However, it is usual for the cake to shrink by half to one inch after cooling.
Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours or overnight (with or without the cake tin). Before serving, dust the cake with powdered sugar. A serving of Japanese cheesecake.
NOTES
1. If you're using a springform pan or a loose-base cake tin, make sure it's well closed. To prevent the water bath from leaking inside the bottom half of the cake, cover the base of the pan with two pieces of aluminum foil (on the outside of the pan).
2. If you use a number eight, "It is critical to line the edges of the 8" pan with parchment paper, ensuring that the parchment paper extends 1.5" higher than the cake tin.
3. If you use a nine, "You can line only the bottom of the pan and not the sides. If desired, line the entire pan with parchment paper.
4. An 8-inch or 9-inch square pan can also be used.
5. If the cake shrinks excessively, the major cause is that the egg white mixture was over-mixed with the cream cheese mixture.
FOLD VERY GENTLY using a flipping motion the egg whites until delicate peaks form. Do not violently stir or combine.
