SPINACH AND PARMESAN SOUFFLES

Categories     Vegetable

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Cooking spray
1 1/2 tablespoons dry breadcrumbs
1 (6-ounce) package fresh baby spinach
2/3 cup fat-free milk
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup (2 ounces) freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
2 large egg yolks
4 large egg whites
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

Steps:

  • 1. Place a baking sheet in the oven. Preheat oven to 425°. 2. Coat 4 (6-ounce) ramekins with cooking spray; sprinkle evenly with breadcrumbs, tilting and turning dishes to coat sides completely. 3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly coat pan with cooking spray. Add spinach; cook for 2 minutes or until spinach wilts, tossing constantly. Place spinach in a colander; let stand 5 minutes. Squeeze excess liquid from spinach. Coarsely chop spinach. 4. Combine 2/3 cup milk and the next 4 ingredients (through black pepper) in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring with a whisk until smooth. Cook for 2 minutes or until mixture is thick and bubbly, stirring constantly. Spoon mixture into a large bowl, and let stand for 10 minutes. Stir in spinach, cheese, and egg yolks. 5. Combine egg whites and cream of tartar in a large bowl, and let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. Beat with a mixer at high speed until medium peaks form (do not overbeat). Gently stir one-fourth of egg whites into spinach mixture, and gently fold in the remaining egg whites. Gently spoon mixture into prepared dishes. Sharply tap dishes 2 or 3 times on counter to level. Place dishes on preheated baking sheet; return baking sheet to 425° oven. Immediately reduce oven temperature to 350°; bake soufflés at 350° for 21 minutes or until puffy and golden brown. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Make sure the spinach is well-drained before adding it to the souffle mixture. Excess moisture can make the souffle watery and prevent it from rising properly.
  • Use fresh Parmesan cheese for the best flavor. Grated Parmesan cheese can be used, but freshly grated Parmesan cheese will give the souffle a more intense flavor.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites can make the souffle tough and rubbery. Beat the egg whites until they are stiff but still glossy.
  • Bake the souffle immediately after assembling it. The souffle will start to deflate as soon as it is removed from the oven, so it's important to serve it right away.
  • Serve the souffle with a simple green salad or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Spinach and Parmesan souffle is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is also relatively easy to make, so it's a great option for home cooks of all skill levels. With a few simple tips, you can make a souffle that is light, fluffy, and packed with flavor.
