I always wanted to make a Classic French Cheese Soufflé , and here it is. A thing of beauty. Absolutely worth the effort.
And the best part? It’s not nearly as complicated as it seems. Once you get the hang of it, you might find yourself wanting to make it every week.
Servings: 6–8
Prep Time: 25 minutes
Cook Time: 35–40 minutes
Total Time: About 1 hour
Ingredients
• 3 cups whole milk
• 7 tbsp all-purpose flour
• 7 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 5 large egg yolks
• 7 large egg whites
• 7-8 oz grated Gruyère or Swiss
• Pinch freshly grated nutmeg
• ½ teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
• 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F
Generously butter a 2-quart soufflé dish, brushing the butter from the bottom upward along the sides to help encourage extra lift as it rises.Dust lightly with flour, then tap and shake out the excess.
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Add flour and whisk continuously for 2–3 minutes to cook out the raw flour taste.
