Best 5 Mushroom And Chevre Souffle Recipes

CHEVRE SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Butter the inside of a 2 1/2quart souffle dish. In a large saucepan, melt the butter, add the flour and whisk to form a smooth roux. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the milk and whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and thick, then cook at a low boil, stirring constantly, for another 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove the mixture from the heat, add the chevre and stir until the cheese is melted and wellincorporated. Stir in the egg yolks and season generously with salt and pepper (the seasoning should be intense here to compensate for the later addition of the egg whites).
• With an electric mixer or by hand with a whisk, whip the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Stir 1/4 of the egg whites into the cheese mixture to lighten it, then carefully fold in the remaining egg whites. Fill the prepared souffle mold; it should be about 3/4 full. Sprinkle the top of the souffle with the dried thyme. Bake in the preheated oven until risen, golden brown and just barely firm in the center, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve immediately.

SPINACH, MUSHROOM AND GOUDA SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In a large skillet coated with cooking spray, cook shallots over medium-low heat, stirring, 3 minutes. Add shiitakes; stir until soft, 5 minutes. Add spinach and 1/2 chopped garlic; stir about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. Whisk milk and flour in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer, whisking, 5 minutes. Whisk egg yolks, one at a time, into milk-flour mixture; whisk in cheeses and mustard. Season with salt and pepper. Fold spinach mixture into egg mixture. Beat egg whites in a bowl until firm peaks form. Stir 1/4 whites into spinach mixture; fold in remaining whites. Coat a 1 1/2-quart soufflé dish with cooking spray. Spoon mixture into dish. Bake until puffed and golden, 30 minutes. In a medium skillet coated with cooking spray, cook remaining chopped garlic, stirring, until lightly golden. Stir in tomatoes; cook 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in basil, thyme and vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Spoon soufflé onto plates; top with tomatoes.
• Serve with:
• 1 cup cubed roasted butternut squash per person. Toss squash with 2 teaspoon olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Bake at 400°F until tender, 30 minutes.

MAKE-AHEAD MUSHROOM SOUFFLéS

Steps:

• Fry the mushrooms in the butter for about 3 mins, then remove from the heat and reserve a good spoonful. Add the flour to the rest, then blend in the milk and return to the heat, stirring all the time to make a thick sauce. Stir in the cheese, season to taste, then leave to cool.
• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Butter 8 x 150ml soufflé dishes and line the bases with baking paper. Stir the egg yolks into the soufflé mixture, then whisk the egg whites until stiff before folding in carefully. Spoon into the soufflé dishes and bake in a roasting tin, half-filled with cold water, for 15 mins until risen and golden. Leave to cool (they will sink, but they are meant to). You can make the soufflés up to this stage up to 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.
• When ready to serve, turn the soufflés out of their dishes, peel off the lining paper, then put them on a baking sheet lined with small squares of baking paper. Top each soufflé with 1 tsp crème fraîche and a little cheese, then scatter with the reserved mushrooms. Bake at 190C/fan 170C/gas 5 for 10-15 mins until slightly risen and warmed through. Sprinkle with chives and serve.
