This recipe was a disaster. The souffle never rose and it tasted terrible.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my souffle didn't turn out very well. It was too dense and didn't have much flavor.

I had to cook the souffle for a little longer than the recipe said, but it turned out great in the end.

I added some chopped fresh herbs to the batter and it gave the souffle a nice pop of flavor.
