Episode overview
In Japan, cheesecake is fluffy, ethereal and soufflé like. Christopher Kimball heads to Osaka to taste it firsthand, before reverse-engineering a recipe with a surprising technique. Then, we explore the French influence on Japanese baking with a recipe for Sugared Crème Fraîche Brioche Buns, followed by a recipe for Chinese Sponge Cake inspired by the bakeries of Hong Kong.
