Why are some cheesecake crusts baked before adding the filling?
because if it wasnt your cheesecake would just fall apart....
Can you use flour instead of cornstarch in cheesecake?
No. Cornstarch is a thickening agent as where flour is used to create some type of dough or batter and when it is baked the gluten allows it to expand and get nice and fluffy. Simply put, if you swapped flour for cornstarch, especially for a cheesecake, you would have a nasty mess and a very uneasy cheesecake. Hope that helps

Reduced fat and even fat free cream cheese products work just as well as their full fat counter parts when making cheese cake. I recommend following the same instructions for any cheese cake recipe but rather than making a crust,which usually is created with butter, try putting low-fat graham crackers on the bottom of a glass serving dish with the cheese cake filling layered on top and topped off with fruit. The same idea can be turned into a parfait dessert if individual desserts are desired.
What is the history of cherry cheesecake?
Before the history of cherry cheesecake can be given, the history of cheesecake must be heard. The Olympic athletes in 776 BC are recorded as eating 'cheesecake', but not the type we think of today. The recipe that the Olympians ate was made of wheat flour, one egg and crushed cheese. England and Western Europe were introduced to cheesecake around 1000 AD from the conquering Romans. Since this country was built from immigrants, it is safe to say that cheesecake was brought to the United States by immigrants. The version brought here was made from a cottage cheese. Then in 1872 the invention of cream cheese happened because a dairyman was trying to imitate the French Neufchatel cheese. The owner of the legendary Turf Restaurant, at 49th and Broadway in New York City, named Arnold Reuben (the same man that invented the Reuben sandwich) is the man credited with using actual cream cheese in a cheesecake. The adding of signature toppings to cheesecakes began in the early 1900's, and New York is credited with adding fruit toppings to the cheesecake. The topping is a pie like filling and out of these toppings our nationÕs favorite flavor is cherry.
