CLASSIC FRENCH SPINACH SOUFFLé

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
• Brush the inside of a 4 to 6-cup soufflé or deep casserole dish with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the softened butter , or grease six (5 to 6-ounce) individual ramekins, dividing the butter evenly. Sprinkle the buttered surface evenly with the grated Parmesan cheese. Set aside while you prepare the filling.
• Heat a large saucepan over low heat and add the chopped spinach. Sauté until it wilts and the juices have evaporated; keep a close eye on it as the spinach can burn. Let cool, then squeeze out excess liquid. Set aside.
• In a separate medium saucepan, melt the remaining butter over medium heat and stir in the flour and salt with a wooden spoon. Cook for 30 seconds, mixing constantly, to cook down the flour.
• Add the milk while whisking vigorously and cook for about 4 minutes, until the mixture thickens.
• Add the cooked spinach to the white sauce and continue cooking over medium heat for 1 minute. Season the mixture with black pepper, nutmeg, and more salt if needed.
• Place the egg yolks in a bowl and whisk in 1/2 cup of the hot spinach mixture to temper it.
• Add the egg yolk mixture to the pan, stirring to completely incorporate; remove from the heat. Do not overheat the mixture or you risk it separating; if this happens, unfortunately, there is no way to fix it.
• In a scrupulously clean bowl, beat the egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form.
• Gently stir 1/3 of the egg whites into the spinach mixture.
• Then fold the remaining egg whites into the mixture.
• Spoon the mixture into the prepared dish(es) and bake for 30 minutes, until the soufflé is puffed up and cooked through. A single souffle may take a few minutes longer.
• Serve immediately and enjoy.
