Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more, room temperature, for dish
2 tablespoons sugar, plus more for dish
8 ounces parsnips (4 medium), peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
8 ounces carrots (5 medium), peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
2 cups 100 percent carrot juice
Coarse salt
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup whole milk, room temperature
3 large egg yolks, plus 5 large egg whites, room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
Pinch of ground allspice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with rack in lower third. Brush a 2 1/2-quart souffle dish with butter, then coat with sugar.
  • Bring parsnips, carrots, and carrot juice to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, partially covered, until vegetables are very tender, 15 to 18 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup liquid. Puree vegetables, reserved liquid, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a blender until smooth. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium. Whisk in flour. Cook, whisking constantly, until mixture is golden and nutty-smelling, 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly whisk in milk (mixture will splatter) and cook, whisking constantly, until mixture thickens to a paste, about 1 minute. Stir into vegetable puree along with yolks, lemon juice, thyme, and allspice. Let cool completely.
  • Beat egg whites on medium-low speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Increase speed to medium-high and slowly add sugar, beating until stiff, glossy peaks form, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir one-third of egg-white mixture into carrot mixture until thoroughly combined. Gently fold in remaining egg-white mixture just until combined. Transfer to prepared dish; gently smooth top.
  • Bake souffle until puffed and golden brown on top and center is set, 50 to 55 minutes; serve.

I'm not a big fan of souffles, but this one was actually pretty good. It was light and fluffy, and the flavor was nice.

The souffle didn't rise very much. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This souffle is a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could use some more herbs or spices.

I love the combination of carrots and parsnips in this souffle. They complement each other perfectly. The cheese sauce is also very good. I would definitely make this again.

This is a great recipe for a special occasion. I made it for a dinner party and my guests raved about it. It's a bit time-consuming to make, but it's definitely worth the effort.
