Best 6 Passion Fruit Souffle Shells Recipes

PASSION FRUIT SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees with rack in center. Generously butter inside and rims of four 6-ounce ramekins. Sprinkle with granulated sugar to coat insides of ramekins, shaking out the excess. Place ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet and refrigerate until needed.
• Bring milk to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium. Whisk together cornstarch and 1/3 of the passion fruit puree in a medium bowl until smooth. While continuing to whisk, slowly pour half the hot milk over passion fruit mixture; whisk until incorporated. Return passion fruit mixture to saucepan, and cook, whisking constantly, over medium until mixture thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat, and whisk in remaining passion fruit puree. Cover to keep warm, and set aside.
• Place egg whites and lemon juice in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; beat on medium-low speed just until foamy. Increase speed to medium-high, and add granulated sugar, beating until soft peaks form. Add 1/3 of the egg white mixture to reserved passion fruit mixture, and whisk until just combined. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in remaining egg white mixture until just incorporated.
• Evenly divide passion fruit mixture among prepared ramekins, gently smoothing tops with the back of a spoon. Bake until puffed and lightly golden, 14 to 16 minutes. The surface of the souffles should be firm with centers that are slightly runny. Carefully remove baking sheet from oven. Dust tops with confectioners' sugar. Scoop a scant teaspoon from center of each souffle, and fill with passion fruit seeds and pulp. Serve immediately.

PASSION-FRUIT SOUFFLé

Steps:

• Remove the lower racks of the oven and preheat to 410 degrees. Brush 6 1-cup ramekins with a thin layer of butter, then dust with sugar. Tap out excess sugar. Place the ramekins on a small sheet pan.
• Mix 1/4 cup sugar with the jam or apple peels until well combined. In a small saucepan, bring the passion-fruit purée to a boil. Add the sugar mixture and stir with a whisk. Lower the heat and bring to a steady simmer. Whisk continually for about 10 minutes, or until reduced by about one-fourth. Cool to room temperature and strain through a fine sieve.
• Make the base: in a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and 1/4 cup of the cooled purée. Add 3 tablespoons sugar and whisk to combine.
• In a mixer, whisk the egg whites until they are foamy and no longer increase in volume. Add the remaining 6 tablespoons sugar. Continue whisking until the sugar dissolves and the whites form shiny stiff peaks. Gently but rapidly fold the whites into the base.
• Pour the mixture to the top of each ramekin. Dust with confectioners' sugar and bake on the oven floor for 10 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown. The soufflés should rise between 1 1/2 to 2 inches over the top of the ramekins. Dust again with confectioners' sugar if you choose. To serve, gently tap a small hole into the top of each soufflé and pour in a few teaspoons of the remaining passion-fruit purée.

FROZEN PASSION FRUIT SOUFFLES

Steps:

• Prepare ramekins:
• Cut paper into 6 (13- by 2 1/2-inch) strips. Wrap a strip tightly around outside of each ramekin to form a 1-inch collar and tape overlapping ends together. Arrange ramekins on a 9-inch baking pan.
• Make soufflés:
• Sprinkle gelatin over lime juice in a small saucepan and let soften 1 minute. Stir in passion fruit pulp and heat over moderately low heat, stirring, until gelatin is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a metal bowl, then set bowl in a larger bowl of ice and cold water and quick-chill mixture, stirring occasionally, until it begins to thicken, about 10 minutes.
• Heat sugar and water in a 1-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved, then wash down crystals from side of pan with a pastry brush dipped in cold water. Boil without stirring until syrup registers 238°F on thermometer, about 5 minutes.
• While syrup is boiling, beat egg whites with a pinch of salt in mixer at medium speed until stiff peaks form. Pour syrup in a slow stream down side of mixer bowl, beating constantly at high speed, and continue beating until meringue is room temperature, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Whisk cream in a chilled bowl until soft peaks form.
• Whisk one fourth of meringue into passion fruit pulp to lighten, then fold pulp into remaining meringue along with whipped cream. Spoon into ramekins, filling them 1/3 to 1 inch above rims.
• Freeze until firm, then cover with plastic wrap and freeze at least 2 hours. Let soufflés soften in refrigerator about 20 minutes before serving.
