Best Garlic And Goat Cheese Soufflé Recipes

GARLIC AND GOAT-CHEESE SOUFFLé

Steps:

• Place the garlic in a saucepan and add cold water to cover. Bring to the boil and let simmer about 40 minutes or until tender. Drain.
• Peel the garlic and put the cloves in a bowl. Mash well. There should be about one-quarter cup.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Butter four individual souffle dishes, each with a one-and-one-half-cup capacity. Chill.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan and add the flour, stirring with a wire whisk. When blended, add the milk, stirring rapidly with the whisk. When thickened and smooth, remove from the heat.
• Blend the cornstarch and water, and stir into the sauce. Return to the heat, stirring, and bring to a simmer. Sprinkle with black pepper and cayenne. Add the cheese and garlic.
• Beat the egg yolks and add them to the mixture. Beat vigorously and bring barely to the boil. Remove from the heat and immediately scrape the mixture into a mixing bowl to prevent further cooking. Let cool briefly.
• Meanwhile, beat the egg whites until stiff. Add one-third of the whites to the cheese mixture and beat with a wire whisk. Add the remaining whites and fold them in, stirring from the bottom and sides.
• Spoon equal amounts of the mixture into the individual dishes. Place the dishes on a baking sheet in the oven and bake 12 minutes until well puffed and brown.

GOAT CHEESE, SUN-DRIED TOMATO, AND ROASTED GARLIC SOUFFLé WITH SALADE VERTE à LA VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Soufflé - Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine garlic and oil in small custard cup. Cover with foil. Bake until garlic is very tender, about 35 minutes. Cool slightly. Add 1 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper to custard cup and mash to paste. Maintain oven temperature. Spray four 2-cup soufflé dishes with nonstick spray. Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon breadcrumbs, coating bottom and sides; place dishes on baking sheet. Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add flour; whisk until smooth, about 1 minute. Gradually add milk, whisking constantly until mixture boils, thickens, and is smooth, about 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, thyme, and garlic mixture. Remove soufflé base from heat. Whisk egg yolks in large bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in hot soufflé base, then fold in goat cheese. Using electric mixer, beat egg whites in another large bowl until foamy. Add cream of tartar; beat until stiff but not dry. Fold whites into soufflé mixture in 4 additions. Divide among prepared dishes. Bake soufflés until puffed and golden, about 25 minutes. Serve immediately.
• Vinaigrette & Salad - Place the vinegar, salt, pepper, mustard, and garlic in a medium-size bowl and whisk together until blended. Slowly add the olive oil, whisking constantly, until the dressing is emulsified. Add the greens and toss well until they are coated with the dressing. Season with pepper to taste and serve the salad immediately.
