Cheese Souffle - A Traditional Dairy Kosher Shavuot Recipe With A Modern Twist That Won't Disappoint 



Here's a simple recipe for a classic cheese souffle:



Ingredients:



- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 4 large eggs, separated
- 1 1/2 cups grated Gruyere cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese



Instructions:




1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 2-quart souffle dish with butter and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.

2. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.

3. Gradually whisk in the milk, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and nutmeg. Cook for 2-3 minutes, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens.

4. Remove from heat and whisk in the egg yolks, one at a time. Stir in the grated Gruyere cheese.

5. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

6. Gently fold the egg whites into the cheese mixture, taking care not to deflate the egg whites.

7. Pour the mixture into the prepared souffle dish and smooth the top with a spatula.

8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the souffle is puffed and golden brown on top.

9. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
