GRUYèRE AND CHIVE SOUFFLé



Gruyère and Chive Soufflé image

This soufflé is as classic as they come, with beaten egg whites folded into a rich, cheese laden béchamel for flavor and stability. Gruyère is the traditional cheese used for soufflé, but a good aged Cheddar would also work nicely. This makes a great lunch or brunch dish. This recipe is part of The New Essentials of French Cooking, a guide to definitive dishes every modern cook should master. Buy the book.

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons/42 grams unsalted butter, plus more for coating dish
5 tablespoons/25 grams finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup whole milk
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
Pinch ground nutmeg
4 large egg yolks
5 large egg whites
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 cup/115 grams coarsely grated Gruyère cheese
2 tablespoons chopped chives

Steps:

  • Remove wire racks from oven and place a baking sheet directly on oven floor. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Generously butter a 1 1/2-quart soufflé dish. Coat bottom and sides with 3 tablespoons/15 grams Parmesan, tapping out any excess.
  • In a small pot, heat milk until steaming. Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook until the mixture foams, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in warm milk. Return to heat and cook until thickened, whisking constantly, about 3 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and whisk in paprika, salt and nutmeg. Whisk in egg yolks one at a time, blending fully after each addition. Transfer flour and yolk mixture to a large bowl.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat egg whites and cream of tartar at medium speed until the mixture holds stiff peaks.
  • Whisk a quarter of the whites into the lukewarm yolk mixture to lighten. Gently fold in remaining whites in 2 additions while gradually sprinkling in Gruyère cheese, remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan and the chives. Transfer batter to prepared dish. Rub your thumb around the inside edge of the dish to create a 1/4-inch or so space between the dish and the soufflé mixture.
  • Transfer dish to baking sheet in the oven and reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees. Bake until soufflé is puffed and golden brown on top and center barely moves when dish is shaken gently, about 30 minutes. (Do not open oven door during first 20 minutes.) Bake it a little less for a runnier soufflé and a little more for a firmer soufflé. Serve immediately.

Very Veggie, Ham, and Gruyere Quiche image

With its shredded hash brown potato crust, this quiche is vegetable-rich! Sauteed red bell pepper, mushrooms, scallions, and spinach make it a colorful, complete meal. Serve with jam and toast for breakfast, or with fruit and a crusty bread for lunch.

Provided by Bibi

Time 1h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

cooking spray
1 pound frozen shredded hash browns, thawed
¼ cup salted butter, melted
1 tablespoon butter
½ cup chopped red bell pepper
½ cup chopped fresh mushrooms
3 medium scallions, chopped
¼ teaspoon salt, divided
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
½ cup fresh spinach, chopped
7 large eggs
¼ cup heavy cream
1 cup shredded Gruyere cheese, divided
3 slices Gruyere cheese
1 cup diced cooked ham

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a 9-inch quiche or pie pan with cooking spray.
  • Place thawed, shredded hash browns on paper towels and lightly press with another paper towel, to remove excess moisture.
  • Pour hash browns in the prepared pan, and press on the bottom and up the sides of the pan to form a crust. Brush the sides and bottom of the hash brown crust with melted butter. Use a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap to press the potatoes firmly on the bottom and sides of the pan again, making sure there are no gaps.
  • Bake crust in the preheated oven until crust is lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes, adding 5-minute increments if needed. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • While the crust is baking, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small skillet and cook the chopped red bell pepper, chopped fresh mushrooms, and chopped scallions, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. Add chopped spinach and cook until spinach is just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Set cooked vegetables aside and allow to cool.
  • Beat eggs, cream, and remaining salt and pepper together in a medium mixing bowl. Stir in cooked vegetables and 1/2 cup shredded Gruyere cheese.
  • Place sliced Gruyere cheese on the bottom of the baked crust, cutting to fit. Sprinkle diced ham on top of the sliced Gruyere, and pour egg mixture over all. Sprinkle remaining shredded Gruyere on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the center of the quiche is set, and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool on a rack for about 15 minutes. Slice and serve warm, or at room temperature.

INDIVIDUAL GRUYERE SOUFFLES



Individual Gruyere Souffles image

Provided by Pierre Franey

Categories     appetizer, side dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 large eggs
4 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups milk
Salt and freshly ground white pepper to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Pinch cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons water
1/3 pound Gruyere or Swiss cheese cut into small cubes
2 tablespoons grated Gruyere cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • Place four 1/2-cup souffle dishes into the refrigerator to chill.
  • Separate the eggs, placing the yolks in one bowl and the whites in larger bowl.
  • With one tablespoon of the butter, butter the bottom and sides of each souffle dish, paying special attention to the sides. Place in refrigerator.
  • Melt the remaining butter in a saucepan and add the flour, stirring with a wire whisk. Blend well, but do not brown the flour. Add the milk, stirring rapidly with the whisk, add the salt and pepper, nutmeg and cayenne. Bring to a boil and cook for 30 seconds, stirring.
  • Blend the cornstarch and water and add to the bubbling sauce. Stir and cook for about two minutes. Add the yolks, stirring vigorously. Cook, stirring, for about a minute.
  • Spoon and scrape the mixture into large mixing bowl. Add the cubed Gruyere, blend well with a wire whisk. Set aside.
  • Beat the egg whites in a mixing bowl, preferably copper. With a flexible balloon-shaped wire whisk or a hand beater, beat them until stiff and thick. Add half of the whites to the souffle mixture and mix thoroughly. Add the remaining whites, folding them in quickly but gently with a rubber spatula.
  • Spoon and scrape even amounts of the mixture into each souffle dish. The mixture should fit inside the dish to about a quarter-inch from the top of the dish. With your thumb, create a channel around the periphery of the dish to allow for expansion. Sprinkle the top with the grated gruyere.
  • Place the dish on a baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soufflé.
  • Make sure your eggs are at room temperature. This will help them whip up more easily.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites. Otherwise, they will become dry and stiff, and your soufflé will not rise properly.
  • Fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture gently. This will help to prevent the soufflé from deflating.
  • Bake the soufflé immediately after assembling it. This will help it to rise properly.
  • Don't open the oven door during baking. This will cause the soufflé to deflate.
  • Serve the soufflé immediately. It will start to deflate as soon as it comes out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Ham and Gruyère soufflé is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is relatively easy to make, but it does require a little bit of care and attention. By following these tips, you can ensure that your soufflé turns out perfect every time.
