I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soufflé didn't turn out at all. I'll have to try again.

The soufflé was a bit too salty for my taste.

I found the recipe to be a bit too complicated. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

The soufflé didn't rise as much as I expected, but it still tasted good.

This soufflé was a hit with my family! The shallots and smoked Gouda added a delicious depth of flavor. I served it with a simple green salad and it was the perfect meal.
