Time 1h20m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

18 large cloves garlic, unpeeled
2 tablespoons butter, plus butter for greasing the souffle dishes
3 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups milk
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 pound semihard goat cheese, crumbled, about 1 3/4 cups
6 eggs, separated

Steps:

  • Place the garlic in a saucepan and add cold water to cover. Bring to the boil and let simmer about 40 minutes or until tender. Drain.
  • Peel the garlic and put the cloves in a bowl. Mash well. There should be about one-quarter cup.
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Butter four individual souffle dishes, each with a one-and-one-half-cup capacity. Chill.
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan and add the flour, stirring with a wire whisk. When blended, add the milk, stirring rapidly with the whisk. When thickened and smooth, remove from the heat.
  • Blend the cornstarch and water, and stir into the sauce. Return to the heat, stirring, and bring to a simmer. Sprinkle with black pepper and cayenne. Add the cheese and garlic.
  • Beat the egg yolks and add them to the mixture. Beat vigorously and bring barely to the boil. Remove from the heat and immediately scrape the mixture into a mixing bowl to prevent further cooking. Let cool briefly.
  • Meanwhile, beat the egg whites until stiff. Add one-third of the whites to the cheese mixture and beat with a wire whisk. Add the remaining whites and fold them in, stirring from the bottom and sides.
  • Spoon equal amounts of the mixture into the individual dishes. Place the dishes on a baking sheet in the oven and bake 12 minutes until well puffed and brown.

This soufflé is a bit too rich for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soufflé didn't turn out at all. It was dense and rubbery.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soufflé didn't rise as much as I expected. It was still tasty, but I was a little disappointed.
