Basque cheesecake

If we open the drawer of irresistible dessert recipes, cheesecake is at the top of the list. It is sweet, it is creamy, it can have a salty and slightly toasted touch and it is, besides being very tasty, easy to prepare.
We line an 18-20 cm mold with high walls (this is important because the cake grows in the oven and prevents it from sliding out) and a removable base with slightly moistened greaseproof paper, leaving it protruding from the sides, and preheat the oven to 210ºC, with heat up and down.
Cream cheeses with little flavor but a lot of creaminess such as Philadelphia type, but also quark cheeses, cottage cheese, ricotta or white cheeses, Burgos style, are the foundation on which to build any cheesecake.
We use them because they provide the desired structure, create almost no lumps and do not saturate the palate by being too intense. Obviously, we could make a cake or cheesecake with whatever we wanted but, in addition to being very powerful – imagine making a cake with only Idiázabal, for example – they would be difficult to work with because of their texture, less liquid and harder, making them almost impractical. In the same way, and so as not to overload yourself, it is a good idea to have a stick blender or a dough mixer at hand, which will facilitate your baking tasks of any kind.
