Cheesecake and High Altitude
Q: Hope, I'm cooking a cheesecake, is there anything
different I need to do when I'm cooking at high altitude? I'm
at 8,000 feet. Thanks, Dan
A: Unless specified by the recipe itself, there should
be no reason to adjust a cheesecake recipe when preparing it
at a high altitude, other than the fact that a slight increase
in baking time might be necessary.
Do be aware that baking times
are not always exact, due to variations in oven temperatures.
A perfectly baked cheesecake will be puffed around the edges,
yet the center should be slightly moist and jiggly. Unless otherwise
directed by your recipe, turn the oven off and allow cheesecake
to remain in oven, with the door ajar, for 30 minutes or until
center is completely set. Remove from the oven and cool completely
on a wire rack away from drafts before refrigerating.
