Tips:

  • Use fresh broccoli: Fresh broccoli has a better flavor and texture than frozen broccoli. If you must use frozen broccoli, be sure to thaw it and drain it thoroughly before using.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli: Overcooked broccoli will be mushy and lose its flavor. Cook the broccoli just until it is tender-crisp.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in a broccoli souffle, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy the taste of. A sharp cheddar cheese or a Gruyère cheese are both good choices.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites: Overbeaten egg whites will be too stiff and will make the souffle tough. Beat the egg whites until they are stiff peaks but not dry.
  • Bake the souffle immediately: A souffle will start to fall as soon as it comes out of the oven, so it's important to bake it immediately after you've assembled it.
