TWICE BAKED SMOKED HADDOCK SOUFFLE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Poach the haddock in the milk on medium heat for 10 minutes. Remove haddock from liquid and set aside. Reboil the milk and make a beurre manie with the flour and butter. Add the beurre manie to the milk and mix until the milk boils to a thick cream like consistency, and remove from heat.
- Combine 1/2 ounce of the corn flour with the egg yolks, and mix until well incorporated. Whisking vigorously, add the egg mixture into the hot milk mixture, and return to the heat. Cook mixture for 5 minutes.
- Remove the mixture from the heat, and add the Parmesan and mustard. Whisk together until smooth and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites and the remaining 1/2 ounce corn flour until stiff peaks form. In a separate bowl, take 1/3 of the milk mixture and 1/3 of the egg whites and whisk together until smooth. Flake the haddock, and add to the mix. Fold in the remaining egg whites.
- Fill the 6 (6-ounce) ramekins with the souffle mix, and place on a baking sheet with a little water. Bake in oven for 20 minutes.
- Remove souffles from oven and allow to cool. Remove souffles from ramekins, add a little double cream into each ramekin, and place souffles back into ramekins. Set aside.
- To prepare the leeks, saute in a saucepan with butter. Once the leeks are soft, add the cream, and smoked haddock, and cook for 5 minutes.
- Place the souffles back in the oven for 4 minutes.
- To plate the haddock, first place a spoonful of the leek mixture in the center of the plate. Place three halves of the quail eggs around the plate. Remove haddock souffles from ramekins and place on top of the leek mixture. Add the sauces randomly on plate, sprinkle with chives, and serve hot.
- In a saucepan, combine the roasted red peppers, chicken stock, and salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and place peppers in blender and puree. Place puree back in saucepan and reduce liquid by half. Set aside for plating.
- To make the saffron sauce, combine all ingredients, let simmer, and reduce by half. Set aside for plating.

Steps:
- Position the rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425°. Butter eight 5-ounce ramekins, making sure to coat them well. Coat each ramekin with breadcrumbs then turn them over and tap out the excess. Reserve any remaining breadcrumbs.
- Melt the 3 tablespoons butter in a stainless-steel skillet over medium-high heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 20 seconds, whisking constantly. Whisk in the milk and cook for about 1 minute, whisking constantly, until the mixture has thickened to the consistency of a thin, pourable pudding.
- Crumble 8 ounces of the cheese into a large mixing bowl. Pour the hot milk mixture over the goat cheese and mix well. Add the egg yolks and mix again. Season with salt and pepper.
- Using an electric mixer with clean, dry beaters, beat the egg whites in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Fold half of the whites into the cheese mixture to lighten it. Then gently fold in the remaining whites.
- Divide half of the souffle mixture among the prepared ramekins. Crumble the remaining 2 ounces of goat cheese and divide among the ramekins, then top with the remaining half of the souffle mixture, dividing it equally among the ramekins. Sprinkle the remaining breadcrumbs over the top.
- Place the ramekins in a large baking pan and pour in boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
- Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the souffles are golden. Remove from the oven and let stand, still in their water bath, for 15 minutes.
- Using a towel to hold the ramekins, run a knife around the inside rim to loosen. Turn out the souffles onto a baking sheet. The souffles may be held at room temperature for up to 6 hours before the final baking.
- When ready to serve, bake the souffles in a 425° oven for 5-7 minutes, or until deep golden brown.

Steps:
- Combine milk, onion, cloves and nutmeg in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to boil. Remove from heat. Cover and let stand 30 minutes. Strain.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter eight 1 1/4-cup soufflé dishes. Melt 6 tablespoons butter in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and dry mustard and whisk 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in strained milk. Boil until mixture is very thick and smooth, whisking constantly, about 2 minutes. Transfer soufflé base to large bowl. Gradually add 1 1/2 cups cheese, whisking until melted and smooth. Add yolks, 1 teaspoon salt and pepper; whisk until smooth. Cool to lukewarm.
- Beat egg whites and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in another large bowl until stiff but not dry. Gently fold beaten whites into cheese mixture in 3 additions.
- Divide batter equally among prepared soufflé dishes. Arrange dishes in heavy 17x12-inch roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into pan to come halfway up sides of dishes. Bake until soufflés are puffed and just firm to touch on top, about 20 minutes. Transfer pan to rack and completely cool soufflés in water. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.)
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Butter heavy large baking sheet. Using small knife, cut around sides of soufflés to loosen. Invert each soufflé onto spatula and slide soufflés onto prepared sheet, spacing evenly. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese. Bake until soufflés are puffed, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring cream to boil in heavy small saucepan. Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper.
- Using spatula, transfer soufflés to plates. Spoon seasoned cream around soufflés and serve hot.
Tips:
- Use fresh garlic for the best flavor.
- Don't overbeat the egg whites, or the soufflés will be tough.
- Be careful not to overfill the ramekins, or the soufflés will rise too high and spill over.
- Bake the soufflés in a preheated oven.
- Serve the soufflés immediately after they come out of the oven.
