How to make light cheesecake ?

The oval molds should also be greased, both on the bottom and on all sides. Just spread it on like you would wax the floor.
Squeeze out the right amount of cream cheese by pushing it through the bag with your hands, without touching it with your hands or with tools like knives or spoons.
Squeeze the air out of the bag, put it on a sealing clip, and store it in the freezer. Don't freeze it, frozen cream cheese is like tofu crumbs, it won't work for cheesecake, it's fine for bread.
Take out the cream cheese and wrap it in plastic wrap, put it in the microwave on the freezer setting and soften it for a minute.
Grab the whisk vertically in your hand and whisk it firmly against the side of the bowl, adding the egg yolks and whisking until you have added all the yolks. Then add the milk or water and whisk well.

The first time you add 1/3 when there are coarse bubbles, the second time when there are fine bubbles, and the last time when the foam is fine.
After the final appearance of ripples, switch to low speed (to prevent over-whipping of egg whites and to make the meringue creamier at the same time). Use the head of the whisk to fish out the meringue will hang on, the length of about three to four cross fingers is just right (when fishing out the meringue, turn off the whisk, the head of the whisk inside the meringue in two rounds, and gently lift up). The shorter the meringue is, the more whipped it is. Over-whipped egg whites tend to crack.
Add the beaten meringue to the yolk-cheese batter in three batches, using a flipping motion, and mix the cake batter gently, quickly.
