THE ULTIMATE FRENCH LEMON SOUFFLé

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat the oven to 350 F. Butter a large soufflé dish and roll the granulated sugar throughout the dish, making sure to cover all the interior surfaces, especially the sides. Set aside.
• In a medium saucepan set over low-medium heat, bring 1 cup of the milk to just steaming.
• Stir together 5 tablespoons of the granulated sugar with the all-purpose flour, lemon zest, remaining 1/3 cup milk, and egg yolks until the mixture turns into a smooth batter.
• Slowly whisk half of the hot milk into the batter, making sure to combine the ingredients well until they are completely smooth.
• Add the tempered batter back into the hot milk in the pan and bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly.
• Stir and cook the mixture until it has thickened, or about 1 minute.
• Stir the cold butter into the mixture and mix well. Allow it to cool at room temperature for 10 minutes.
• Stir in the vanilla extract.
• In a separate very clean bowl, beat the egg whites on medium-high speed until they become foamy and then add the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar.
• Continue beating the egg whites on high speed until they hold stiff glossy peaks.
• Gently stir 1/3 of the egg whites into the vanilla mixture, then carefully fold in the remaining whipped egg whites.
• The vanilla mixture should be evenly colored and light and bubbly, without egg white streaks or marbling.
• Spoon the soufflé mixture into the prepared dish. Bake right away for 25 to 30 minutes, or slightly longer if at high altitude , until the soufflé has risen with a crusty exterior. If needed, cover it, and refrigerate it until ready for baking.
• Serve the soufflé with a dusting of confectioners' sugar and a few berries, if desired.
• Enjoy!

LEMON SOUFFLé

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (F).
• Cut the bottom off of each lemon so that the lemon can sit flat. Cut the top off of the lemon, about 1/4 of the way down.
• Remove the insides of each lemon, leaving about 1/4 inch at the bottom, and place the pulp in a strainer set over a bowl. Squeeze the juice out of the pulp.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (F).
• Spray ramekins with non-stick spray and add a small spoonful of sugar. Roll the ramekin around until the sugar coats the inside.
• Juice the lemons into a strainer set over a bowl.
• In a heat-proof bowl, combine egg yolks, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Whisk until well combined.
• Set bowl over a small saucepan of simmering water and whisk constantly until thickened, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat and continue to whisk for about 3 minutes and then chill while you make the french meringue.
• In a medium bowl, beat the egg whites with a hand mixer. Start slow and when the whites get frothy increase the speed. Slowly add 2 tablespoons of sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form.
• Using a silicone spatula add about 1/4 of the meringue into the yolk mix and stir until fully combined. Add the rest of the meringue and gently fold until mostly combined with only a few streaks of yellow left.
• Gently add the mixture to each lemon or ramekin. Fill to slightly below the top.
• Place the lemons or the ramekins on a cookie sheet and place in oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the soufflés have risen at least an inch above the edge and the tops are browned.
• Remove from oven and serve immediately.

• In a mixer, beat egg whites until peaks are stiff. Fold the yolk mixture into whites gently to combine mixtures.
• Using butter or vegetable shortening, grease 6-inch custard cups. Pour the mixture into the cups. Set the cups in 1/2 inch of hot water in a 9 by 12-inch baking pan. Bake 25 minutes or until tops have risen and turn golden brown.

LEMON SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Special equipment: six 8-ounce ramekins
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan. Brush the inside ramekins with butter and then dust with sugar. Reserve the ramekins in the fridge.
• Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in the saucepan and add the flour. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes and whisk in the milk and add 3/4 cup sugar. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool. Whisk in the egg yolks, 1 at a time. Add the lemon juice and zest and reserve.
• Put the egg whites and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl. With an electric mixer, beat the egg whites to stiff peaks.
• Using a rubber spatula, scoop one-third of the egg whites into the lemon mixture. Gently and quickly fold the whites in. Repeat this process 2 more times with the remaining whites. Be sure that the whites are fully combined and there are no streaks.
• Carefully spoon the mixture into the chilled ramekins until they are about three-quarters of the way full. Run your finger around the rim of the ramekin to make sure that the edges are clean.
• Place the filled ramekins on a sheet tray and into the preheated oven. Bake the souffles until the souffles have risen straight and tall over the rims of the ramekins, 13 to 15 minutes.
• Serve immediately, topped with Creme Anglaise.
• Place the heavy cream in a small saucepan. Split the vanilla bean down one side and scrape the seeds out and put them in the heavy cream. Whisk in half the sugar. Place the pan on a medium heat and bring it to a boil.
• While the cream is heating, whisk together the egg yolks and remaining sugar.
• When the cream comes to a boil, pour half of it into the egg and sugar mixture, whisk it and then pour it IMMEDIATELY back into the saucepan. Whisk to combine.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter six 12-ounce souffle dishes, and then dust with granulated sugar. Whisk together yolks, flour, zest, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar.
• Bring milk to a boil in a small saucepan. Slowly pour milk into yolk mixture, whisking constantly to prevent yolks from cooking. Return mixture to pan, and whisk until thick like a pudding, 1 to 2 minutes. Strain through a sieve, and whisk in butter and lemon juice.
• Beat whites until foamy. Gradually add remaining 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and beat until stiff peaks form. Stir a third of the whites into the yolk mixture. Gently fold in the remaining whites using a rubber spatula.

LEMON SOUFFLé

Steps:

• Butter a 2-quart soufflé or other deep baking dish. Sprinkle the dish with sugar, invert it, and tap to remove excess sugar. Set aside and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Whisk the egg yolks with 3/4 cup of the sugar until light and very thick; the mixture will fall in a ribbon from the ends of the beaters when it is ready. Beat in the flavorings and set aside.
• Beat the egg whites with the salt until they hold soft peaks; continue to beat, gradually adding the remaining 1/4 cup sugar, until they are very stiff but still glossy. Stir a good spoonful of them thoroughly into the egg yolk mixture to lighten it, then fold in the remaining whites, using a rubber spatula or your hand. Transfer to the prepared soufflé dish(es) and bake until the center is nearly set, 25 to 35 minutes (15 to 25 minutes for individual soufflés). Serve immediately.
