Yield 8 , 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, plus extra
1/3 cup plain dried breadcrumbs
5 cups packed spinach, trimmed and washed
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4 cup plus 2 tbs whole milk
1/2 cup grated gruyere cheese
coarse salt
ground pepper
2 large eggs, separated
2 large egg whites

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F Butter a round 1-quart tall-sided baking dish and dust with breadcrumbs; set aside.
  • In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons water over medium-high. Add spinach and cook, stirring constantly, until wilted, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a strainer to cool; press to release liquid.
  • In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium until bubbling. Add flour and whisk until a paste forms. Continue to cook until pale blond in color, 2-3 minutes. Whisking, gradually add milk. Cook, whisking, until lumps are gone and mixture is thickened, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in cheese until melted; season with salt and pepper. Transfer souffle base to a large bowl.
  • In a food processor, pulse spinach and egg yolks until coarsely pureed. Add 1/4 cup souffle base; pulse until blended. Stir spinach mixture into remaining souffle base.
  • In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat 4 egg whites and a pinch of salt on medium-high until stiff peaks form (do not overbeat), about 3 minutes. In 2 additions, gently fold egg whites into souffle base.
  • Pour batter into prepared dish and bake until souffle is tall, browned, and firm to the touch, about 35 minutes. (Avoid opening oven during the first 25 minutes of baking.) Serve immediately.

I'm not a big fan of spinach, but I loved this souffle! The cheese and eggs really masked the flavor of the spinach.

I thought the souffle was a bit bland. I added some extra salt and pepper and it was much better.
