Lemon Pudding Souffle Recipes

LEMON PUDDING SOUFFLES

Steps:

• Lightly brush four 8-ounce ramekins with butter, then dust each with sugar. (This can be done up to 2 hours ahead.)
• Melt the butter in a heavy medium saucepan over medium-low heat, then cool to warm. Whisk in the sugar and lemon juice and zest until the sugar is dissolved. Whisk in the egg yolks. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and an instant-read thermometer registers 175 degrees F, about 10 minutes. Do not boil. Transfer the egg yolk mixture to a large bowl and whisk in the flour until smooth. Cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the egg whites, salt and cream of tartar if using in a large, clean nonreactive bowl. Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until they hold soft peaks. Fold a quarter of the beaten egg whites into the egg yolk mixture to lighten. Gently fold in the remaining egg whites.
• Divide the souffle mixture evenly among the prepared ramekins. Place the filled ramekins in a roasting pan. Carefully fill the pan with enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake the souffles until golden brown on top, 12 to 14 minutes. Using tongs as an aid, carefully remove the hot souffles from the water to a plate.
• If desired, make a small indentation in the center of each souffle and place a small scoop of raspberry sorbet in the indentations. Serve the souffles immediately.

LEMON SOUFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsuis). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Slice the stem ends from the lemons so they can sit level. Cut off the tip end of each lemon, parallel with the bottom and roughly ⅓ of the way down. Reserve the tops.
• Hold each lemon firmly and use a serrated knife to cut out the pulp. Use a melon baller to scoop out the flesh into a sieve placed over a bowl. Squeeze the juice from the pulp and reserve for later. Place the hollowed-out lemons on the sheet pan.
• In a heat-proof bowl, combine the egg yolks, ¼ cup sugar, ¼ cup reserved lemon juice, lemon zest and flour. Whisk until pale yellow. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water and continue to whisk for about 8 minutes, until very thick. Remove from the heat and beat with an electric mixer for about 10 minutes, until cooled, while scraping down the sides. Transfer to a clean bowl and set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the egg whites with the remaining ¼ cup sugar. Beat with the electric mixer on low speed until frothy. Slowly increase the mixer speed until the meringue is shiny and hold soft peaks, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Whisk about ⅓ of the meringue into the yolk mixture, then fold in the remaining meringue gently. Fill the lemon shells to just below the rim.
• Bake for approximately 14 to 16 minutes, until the tops are golden and have risen about 1 inch above the shell.
• Serve immediately, garnished with confectioners' sugar and the reserved lemon tops.
