Soufflé du Fromage (Cheese Soufflé) image

It took me a while to perfect this one. The most important thing about serving a soufflé is to place it on the table before guests the second it comes out of the oven. Humidity can affect the way your soufflé turns out: the drier, the better. Be sure to beat the egg whites until softly stiff, but not dry. Make sure there is not...

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

WHITE SAUCE
3 Tbsp butter
3 Tbsp all purpose flour
1 c whole milk
SOUFFLE INGREDIENTS
5 Tbsp grated parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp shredded swiss cheese
3 beaten egg yolks
4 egg whites
extra paper-thin shavings of swiss cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Make white sauce: Stir together butter and flour in a sauce pan over low heat until smooth and well-blended. Over medium heat, gradually stir in milk until smooth, and it just comes to a boil. Remove from heat and cool 1 minute, stirring.
  • 2. Stir about 2 tablespoons of the white sauce into the beaten egg yolks, to "temper" the yolks and keep them from cooking.
  • 3. Then, add to the white sauce, stirring well, the cheeses and beaten egg yolks. Cool mixture to room temperature.
  • 4. While mixture is cooling, beat the egg whites until softly stiff, but not dry. Fold the egg whites into the cheese mixture.
  • 5. Immediately pour entire mixture into a well-greased and lightly floured soufflé dish. This dish should be round, about 7-8" in diameter, with tall straight sides. Use shortening or butter to grease it with, and lightly dust with real flour. I haven't had much success using Baker's Joy Cake Release or similar products.
  • 6. Decorate the top of the soufflé with paper-thin slices of Swiss cheese cut into fancy shapes. Bake 25-30 minutes or until set. Serve immediately, before it loses its "pouf".

This soufflé was a bit too oniony for my taste. I think I'll use less onion next time.

This soufflé was a bit too dense for my taste. I think I'll beat the egg whites a little longer next time.

This soufflé was a bit too eggy for my taste. I think I'll use more cheese and less eggs next time.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra herbs and spices to give it more flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soufflé didn't rise. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This soufflé is the perfect make-ahead dish. I can prepare it in advance and then bake it just before serving.
