Ina Garten's Blue Cheese Souffle' Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus extra for greasing the dish
1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan, plus extra for sprinkling
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup scalded milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Pinch cayenne pepper
Pinch nutmeg
4 extra-large egg yolks, at room temperature
3 ounces good Roquefort cheese, chopped
5 extra-large egg whites, at room temperature
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Butter the inside of an 8-cup souffle dish (7 1/2 inches in diameter and 3 1/4 inches deep) and sprinkle evenly with Parmesan. NOTE: I used 4 small ramekins and make "collars" with parchment paper so the souffle could rise higher. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. With a wooden spoon, stir in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Off the heat, whisk in the hot milk (I heated it in the microwave for about 90 seconds), 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, the cayenne, and nutmeg. Cook over low heat, whisking constantly, for 1 minute, until smooth and thick. Off the heat, while still hot, whisk in the egg yolks, one at a time. Stir in the Roquefort and the 1/4 cup of Parmesan and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Put the egg whites, cream of tartar, and a pinch of salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on low speed for 1 minute, on medium speed for 1 minute, then finally on high speed until they form firm, glossy peaks. Whisk 1/4 of the egg whites into the cheese sauce to lighten and then fold in the rest. Pour into the souffle dish, then smooth the top. Draw a large circle on top with the spatula to help the souffle rise evenly, and place in the middle of the oven. Turn the temperature down to 375°F. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes (don't peek!) until puffed and brown. Serve immediately.

This souffle was a disaster! It didn't rise at all, and it was more like a quiche than a souffle. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I won't be trying this recipe again.

This souffle was good, but not great. The blue cheese flavor was a little too strong for my taste, and the texture was a bit too dense. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different type of cheese, like cheddar or mozzarella.

This souffle was delicious! I loved the combination of blue cheese and Gruyère cheeses, and the bread crumbs added a nice crispy texture. I served it with a salad, and it was a perfect meal. I will definitely be making this again.
