Philadelphia Dijon Herb Parmesan Souffle Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Butter 6 (7 1/2 by 3 1/2-inch ramekins. Sprinkle with some grated Parmesan, and coat all sides and the base of the dish. Pour out the excess cheese into the next ramekin to coat. Continue coating the ramekins with the cheese and set aside.
• Heat the milk in a small saucepan over low heat.
• In another medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook out raw flour taste, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the hot milk and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Remove the pan from heat, add 3/4 cup of grated cheese and season, to taste, with salt and pepper (watch salt levels because of the cheese). Pour the mixture into a large bowl and set aside to cool to room temperature.
• In a stand mixer, whip the egg whites to stiff peaks.
• Whisk the yolks into the cooled bechamel. Fold 1/3 of whipped egg whites into the bechamel to lighten the base. Gently fold in the remaining whipped egg whites in order to keep the incorporated air. Carefully fill the prepared ramekins and arrange them on a baking sheet. Bake until risen and golden on top, about 20 minutes. The center will have just a slight jiggle when ready. Remove the ramekins from the oven and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Generously butter and flour 7- to 8-cup soufflé dish. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour; stir 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk, then nutmeg. Bring to simmer, whisking constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook sauce until very thick, whisking often, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix in cheese and herbs. Season with salt and pepper. Cool 1 minute. (Soufflé base can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover and let stand at room temperature. Before continuing, stir soufflé base over low heat until warm.)
• Whisk yolks in medium bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in soufflé base. Using electric mixer, beat whites in large bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold whites into soufflé base in 2 additions. Transfer batter to prepared dish.
• Bake soufflé until top is puffed and golden brown and center is just set, about 35 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Generously butter six 8-ounce ramekins. Set aside on a rimmed baking sheet.
• In the work bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade, pulse the peaches until coarsely chopped. (The pieces should be no large than1/4 inch in size.) Remove 3/4 cup of the chopped peaches and place 2 tablespoons of them in each of the prepared ramekins. Set aside.
• Add the lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the remaining chopped peaches in the bowl of the food processor. Process until very smooth and pureed. Transfer 1 cup of the peach puree to a bowl, discarding any remainder or reserve for another use, such as an ice cream topping or base for a smoothie. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with the whisk, beat the egg whites with a pinch of the salt on medium speed until foamy. Add about 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar and beat on high speed until the whites hold soft peaks, 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly add the remaining granulated sugar and beat on high speed until the whites are glossy and hold stiff peaks when the whisk is lifted.
• Add about a quarter of the beaten egg whites to the peach puree mixture and stir until well mixed. Pour this mixture over the remaining egg whites and fold them together as lightly as possible.
• Spoon the mixture into the prepared souffles ramekins (the mixture should come up to the top of each). Smooth the top with a metal spatula. Run your thumb around the inside of the rim of each dish, making a shallow channel around the edge of the batter. (This will help the souffles rise up straight and tall.) Set the filled souffles ramekins on the rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake until puffed, golden, and gently set in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450. Put a large frying pan over high heat until very hot. Rub lamb with 1 tablespoon of the oil, season aggressively with salt and pepper and then sear the meat in the pan until it is golden brown all over, approximately 4 minutes a side. Place on a rimmed baking sheet, and let rest for 20 or 30 minutes, until cool.
• In a bowl, combine the bread crumbs, cheese and parsley. Rub the cooled-off lamb with the remaining olive oil, then pat the seasoned bread crumbs all over the meat in an even layer.
• Put the lamb back on the baking sheet, and roast until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat registers 120 degrees, approximately 20 to 30 minutes. (Tent the lamb with foil if the crust threatens to get too dark at the end.) Remove the lamb from the oven, and allow to stand, covered loosely in foil, for 10 minutes or so. (The internal temperature will rise to 125 degrees, or medium-rare, while the lamb sits.) Carve into chops, and serve on a warmed platter.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Butter a 2-quart souffle dish. Add 1 cup cheese, tilting dish to cover bottom and sides with cheese. Shake out any excess. Set aside in the refrigerator.
• Place sour cream in a large mixing bowl. Sift flour into sour cream. Whisk sour cream and flour until well combined. Add egg yolks, one at a time, whisking after each addition. Stir in salt, cayenne, chives, and remaining 2 cups cheese.
• Place egg whites in a very clean, large bowl, preferably copper. Whisk vigorously until stiff peaks form. Gently fold egg whites into sour cream mixture.
• Pour the batter into the prepared souffle dish and bake until souffle has risen 2 to 3 inches above the rim and top is golden brown, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees with rack in center. Generously butter inside and rims of four 6-ounce ramekins. Sprinkle with granulated sugar to coat insides of ramekins, shaking out the excess. Place ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet and refrigerate until needed.
• Bring milk to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium. Whisk together cornstarch and 1/3 of the passion fruit puree in a medium bowl until smooth. While continuing to whisk, slowly pour half the hot milk over passion fruit mixture; whisk until incorporated. Return passion fruit mixture to saucepan, and cook, whisking constantly, over medium until mixture thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat, and whisk in remaining passion fruit puree. Cover to keep warm, and set aside.
• Place egg whites and lemon juice in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; beat on medium-low speed just until foamy. Increase speed to medium-high, and add granulated sugar, beating until soft peaks form. Add 1/3 of the egg white mixture to reserved passion fruit mixture, and whisk until just combined. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in remaining egg white mixture until just incorporated.
• Evenly divide passion fruit mixture among prepared ramekins, gently smoothing tops with the back of a spoon. Bake until puffed and lightly golden, 14 to 16 minutes. The surface of the souffles should be firm with centers that are slightly runny. Carefully remove baking sheet from oven. Dust tops with confectioners' sugar. Scoop a scant teaspoon from center of each souffle, and fill with passion fruit seeds and pulp. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Spray 1-qt. souffle dish or casserole with cooking spray. Sprinkle 1 tsp. Parmesan onto bottom and up side of prepared dish.
• Place remaining Parmesan in blender. Add Neufchatel, egg whites, mustard and dill weed; cover. Blend on medium speed 30 sec. or until well blended. Scrape down side of blender; cover and continue blending 15 sec. Gently stir in onions. Pour into prepared dish.
• Bake 35 to 40 min. or until puffed and golden brown. Serve immediately.
