Yield Makes 4 (main course) to 6 (side dish) servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

For soufflé
3 tablespoons finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
1 1/4 cups finely chopped cauliflower florets
1/4 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
White pepper to taste
1/2 stick unsalted butter
4 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups whole milk
6 large egg yolks
8 large egg whites
For brown butter
1 stick salted butter
Equipment
2-qt soufflé dish

Steps:

  • Make Soufflé:
  • Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in middle.
  • Generously butter soufflé dish, then sprinkle with cheese, knocking out excess.
  • Stir together cauliflower, parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and white pepper to taste in a large bowl.
  • Melt butter in a 2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour, then cook, whisking, until pale golden, about 2 minutes. Add milk a little at a time, whisking constantly until very smooth. Bring sauce to a boil, whisking, then simmer, whisking, until quite thick, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and whisk in yolks, 1/4 teaspoon white pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir into cauliflower mixture.
  • Beat whites in a bowl with an electric mixer at high speed until they just hold stiff peaks (they should not look dry). Stir a heaping spoonful of whites into yolk mixture to lighten, then gently fold in remaining whites until just combined.
  • Gently spoon into soufflédish (leave at least 1 inches of space at top) and bake until golden brown and top appears set, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Make Brown Butter:
  • Cook butter in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it turns golden with a nutlike fragrance and flecks on bottom of pan turn a rich caramel brown, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Serve soufflé immediately, drizzling with warm brown butter.

4 eggs, separate
1 Cauliflower
2 TBS Flour
1 C Milk
2 TBS Butter
1 C Cheddar Cheese, grated

Steps:

Tips:

  • Choose the right cauliflower: Look for a head of cauliflower that is compact and heavy for its size, with tightly packed florets. Avoid heads with any signs of bruising or discoloration.
  • Trim the cauliflower properly: Cut off the tough outer leaves and the thick stem. Then, cut the cauliflower into small florets, about 1-2 inches in size.
  • Steam the cauliflower until tender: Steaming is the best way to cook cauliflower for a souffle because it helps to preserve its delicate flavor and texture. Steam the cauliflower florets for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender but still slightly firm.
  • Use a food processor to puree the cauliflower: A food processor is the best way to get a smooth and creamy puree. Puree the steamed cauliflower florets until they are completely smooth.
  • Season the cauliflower puree well: Don't be afraid to season the cauliflower puree generously with salt, pepper, and other spices. This will help to bring out the flavor of the cauliflower and make the souffle more flavorful.
  • Fold in the egg whites gently: When you are folding the egg whites into the cauliflower puree, be gentle and do not overmix. Overmixing will cause the egg whites to deflate and the souffle will not rise properly.
  • Bake the souffle at a high temperature: A high temperature will help the souffle to rise quickly and evenly. Bake the souffle at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 25-30 minutes, or until it is golden brown and puffed up.

Conclusion:

Cauliflower souffle is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover cauliflower, and it is also a good source of vitamins and minerals.
