Soufflé~Soft your heart~

Soufflé is a France dessert which is a lightly baked cake made with egg yolks and beaten egg whites combined with various other ingredients and served as a savory main dish or sweetened as a dessert. You may taste it in some fine dining restaurant with a very high price. However, the soufflé actually just cost few bucks and easy to do. This is my first time to make soufflé, so it’s not really successful, as the outlook not so nice, by the way the taste is nice. Yummy~ Next time, I would try out to make different flavors.

“The word soufflé is the past participle of the French verb souffler which means "to blow up" or more loosely "puff up"—an apt description of what happens to this combination of custard and egg whites.”

Ingredients

2 eggs white

1 egg yolks

1 tablespoon of flour

2 tablespoon of caster sugar

50ml of milk

A little bit vanilla extract

Methods

·         Pre-heat the oven to 200’c. Heat the milk to warm by microwave.

·         Add 1 tablespoon of caster sugar to egg yolk, stir it till white yellow color, and then add in little bit vanilla extract. Later, strain and pour the flour into the mixture eggs, then pour in the warm milk, set aside.

·         Place the egg whites in a large clean bowl. (Note: Make sure there’s no oil or water in the bowl at all.) Use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until many bubbles form. Add the sugar, a little at a time; beat at high speed until stiff peaks form. Make sure not to over beat the egg whites, lest they will break down.

·         Transfer the egg yolk mixture into a large mixing bowl. Gently fold-in the egg whites and stir in to loosen the consistency. Later, spoon the mixture into ramekins. Fill in 80% of ramekin is enough due it will expand till very high. Then, bake it in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown and risen 2cm above the rim. Serve immediately dusted with cocoa powder.
