Classic cake with flavored wine---Nagasaki cake

Overview

Mirin occupies an important position in Japanese cuisine, and many delicious foods rely on it. Without it, the taste will be lost. For example, Japanese sukiyaki and beef rice bowl. I have always been curious about the taste of Nagasaki cake. What would a cake with high flour and mirin taste like? The finished product is very delicate and even, fluffy, soft and slightly elastic. It is moister than a sponge cake and not as sweet as expected. It also has mirin to help eliminate the eggy smell and honey to moisturize and add color. It is very delicious.
