ONION SOUFFLé RECIPE



Onion Soufflé Recipe image

Is this classic Southern side part of your Easter celebrations? This old-school onion soufflé recipe came to us back in 1979 from Mrs. James S. Tiffany of Dallas, Texas. This recipe, unlike other onion soufflés that are more casserole-like, relies on just onions and eggs for its fluffy consistency. One thing that also sets this onion soufflé apart from the pack is its sweet taste. The onions provide the savory bite, yes - but, a few tablespoons of sugar in the mixture make this soufflé a little more reminiscent of sweet potato casserole rather than a savory pudding. Finely chopped pecans mixed with a little sugar give a crunchy topping to this Southern recipe. If you're hoping to add to your Passover menu, this dish is easily modified to fit the bill; simply omit the all-purpose flour or replace with almond flour. Whether you're used to having an onion soufflé in your side dish repertoire or are looking to try out something new this holiday season, we encourage you to give this hearty, no-fail "onion pudding" recipe a try. You'll be surprised at how the sweet, caramelized onions in this soufflé complement your meal.

CORN & ONION SOUFFLE

I swapped out my old cheese souffle for one with corn. If you're souffle-challenged, it helps to use smaller ramekins instead of one big dish. -Lily Julow, Lawrenceville, Georgia

Tips:

  • Use a medium-sized onion for this recipe. A large onion will be too strong and overpowering.
  • Cook the onion slowly over low heat until it is very soft and caramelized. This will bring out its natural sweetness.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites will make the soufflé tough.
  • Be careful not to overcook the soufflé. It should be cooked through, but still slightly wobbly in the center.
  • Serve the soufflé immediately. It will start to fall as soon as it comes out of the oven.
