Souffles are Seriously Simple to prepare, but their success depends on perfect timing. Plan your meal so the souffle goes into the oven just as you sit down for your first course (salad or soup). Remember, you can wait for the souffle, but the souffle won’t wait for you—it must be served immediately to avoid deflation.
This classic cheese souffle begins with a simple white sauce that is enriched with egg yolks and flavorful cheeses. The key to its airy texture is carefully folding stiffly beaten egg whites into the mixture, preserving as much air as possible.
