    Recipe Introduction


    Yield: 5 servings
    Prep Time: 25 minutes
    Cook Time: 35 minutes
    Difficulty: Expert

    List of Ingredients




    Butter, room temperature, for greasing the souffle
    2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
    1 1/2 ounces (3 tablespoons) butter
    3 tablespoons flour
    1 teaspoon dry mustard
    1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
    1 1/3 cups milk, hot
    4 large egg yolks (2 1/2 ounces by weight)
    6 ounces sharp Cheddar
    5 egg whites plus 1 tablespoon water (5 1/2 ounces by weight plus 1/2 ounce water)
    1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar

    Recipe



    Use room temperature butter to grease an 8-inch souffle mold. Add the grated Parmesan and roll around the mold to cover the sides. Cover with plastic wrap and place into the freezer for 5 minutes.

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

    In a small saucepan, heat the butter. Allow all of the water to cook out.

    In a separate bowl combine the flour, dry mustard, garlic powder, and kosher salt. Whisk this mixture into the melted butter. Cook for 2 minutes.

    Whisk in the hot milk and turn the heat to high. Once the mixture reaches a boil, remove from the heat.

    In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks to a creamy consistency. Temper the yolks into the milk mixture, constantly whisking. Remove from the heat and add the cheese. Whisk until incorporated.

    In a separate bowl, using a hand mixer, whip the egg whites and cream of tartar until glossy and firm. Add 1/4 of the mixture to the base. Continue to add the whites by thirds, folding very gently.

    Pour the mixture into the souffle. Fill the souffle to 1/2-inch from the top. Place on an aluminum pie pan. Bake in the oven for 35 minutes
