GRAND MARNIER® SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Brush the insides of 2 (8-ounce) ramekins with 1 tablespoon melted butter and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar. Place on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter and 2 teaspoons butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; cook and stir flour in the melted butter until golden brown and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Pour in milk and cook, stirring continuously, until smooth and thick, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a mixing bowl.
• Stir orange zest and 1 tablespoon brandy-based orange liqueur into butter mixture until combined. Add egg yolks and 1/8 teaspoon vanilla; mix until smooth.
• Whisk egg whites in a large bowl until frothy. Slowly add half the 1/4 cup sugar and whisk until combined; add remaining sugar and continue to whisk until meringue is thick and holds it shape, but is not stiff.
• Fold half the meringue into egg yolk mixture until combined. Gently fold in second half until well mixed. Transfer to the prepared ramekins, allowing 1/4-inch of space at the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until risen and browned, 16 minutes.

BASIC SOUFFLé

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375° F (190° C).
• Melt butter in medium saucepan over low heat. Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is smooth and bubbly. Stir in milk all at once. Continue stirring until mixture boils and is smooth and thickened.
• Separate eggs. Beat yolks well and add ¼ cup (50 mL) of warm sauce mixture to egg yolks.
• Combine yolk mixture with remaining sauce, blending thoroughly. If desired, add finely chopped filling ingredients, stirring into white sauce until blended (see variations). Set sauce aside to cool slightly.
• Beat egg whites and cream of tartar in large bowl, until stiff but not dry. Fold some of the egg whites into sauce to make it lighter, then gently but thoroughly fold the sauce into the remaining egg whites.
• Carefully pour into 4-cup (1 L) soufflé or casserole dish.
• Bake in preheated 375° F (190° C) oven until puffed and lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes or until done. Serve immediately.

TANGERINE SOUFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees with rack in lower third. Butter six 6-ounce ramekins; coat with superfine sugar. Place on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Bring milk, vanilla bean and seeds, and salt to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-low. In a large bowl, whisk together yolks and 1/4 cup superfine sugar until pale and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add flour and whisk until well combined.
• Remove vanilla bean from milk mixture (discard or reserve for another use), then gradually add half to yolk mixture, whisking constantly. Whisk yolk mixture into remaining milk mixture in saucepan. Bring just to a boil, whisking constantly, then reduce heat and simmer until thick and smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat; whisk in zest and juice. Transfer to a large bowl and cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto surface of mixture. Let cool completely.
• In another bowl, whisk egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 2 tablespoons superfine sugar and whisk until peaks are stiff and glossy, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Spoon one-quarter of whites mixture into custard base, then whisk thoroughly until smooth. Gently fold in remaining whites mixture until combined. (Don't worry if some streaks remain.) Divide evenly among prepared ramekins. Bake until risen and set, 15 to 16 minutes. Serve immediately, dusted with confectioners' sugar and with creme fraiche alongside.

SOUFFLE A L'ORANGE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Position a rack so the souffle will sit in the middle of the oven. Spread the 1/2 tablespoon of butter evenly inside a 6-cup souffle dish (6 1/2-inches round x 3 1/2-inches high) with a paper towel. Add the 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and tilt the dish to distribute the sugar evenly. Lightly tap out the excess and set aside.
• Melt the 2 tablespoons of butter in a 9-inch round enamel pot, such as Le Creuset, over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute, whisking constantly. Whisk in the milk and 1/4 cup granulated sugar and cook for 1 minute, whisking constantly. Off the heat, cool for 1 minute and whisk in first the egg yolks and then the orange liqueur, vanilla, and orange zest and set aside.
• Put the egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on medium-high speed until they are doubled in volume and frothy. With the mixer running, slowly add the 1/4 cup of granulated sugar and beat until the egg whites form soft, very creamy (not firm!) peaks. Whisk 1/4 of the egg white mixture into the egg yolk mixture, then add all the egg whites and fold them carefully but thoroughly with a rubber spatula into the base.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared souffle dish, not filling it more than 1 1/4 inches from the top of the dish (there may be extra mixture). Put your finger 1 inch down into the edge of the souffle mixture and run it all the way around, making sure you don't rub off the butter and sugar inside the dish. Place in the middle of the oven and immediately turn the temperature down to 375 degrees. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the souffle is puffed and browned on top. Don't peek!!
• Sift a light dusting of the confectioners' sugar on top and serve immediately.

ORANGE SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Scald the milk and set aside.
• In a medium sauce pan, combine the butter and flour, cook to a light blonde color, making a light roux. Off of the heat, whisk some of the scalded milk into the roux, slowly incorporating all of the milk. Return the roux to a low flame, and whisk in 3/4 cup of sugar, orange juice concentrate, orange juice, vanilla, salt, bring to a boil remove from heat. Stir in the zest and orange liqueur. Carefully add some of the scalded milk mixture to the egg yolk, to balance the temperature, and then combine them both, whisking thoroughly. Cover, set aside, and cool.
• Prepare 6 (12-ounce) souffle cups by buttering them lightly and dusting them with sugar.
• Beat the egg whites to medium stiff peaks, add the remaining sugar, and beat to stiff peaks. Fold the milk and egg mixture into the beaten egg whites. Fill the buttered and sugared souffle cups about 3/4 of the way. Bake, in a water bath, until puffed and golden, about 12 to 15 minutes.
