Cook Time 45 minutes mins
Total Time 45 minutes mins
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter + a bit extra for greasing the baking dish
- 3 tbsp all purpose flour
- 1 tsp dry mustard
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- pinch freshly grated nutmeg
- 1 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 cup grated gruyere
- 4 egg yolks
- 6 egg whites
Preheat the oven to 375F. Grease an 8" souffle dish or 6 ramekins with room temperature butter. Toss the parmesan around the dish until it's evenly covered. Set aside in the refrigerator.
In a saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat until melted. Meanwhile combine all the dries and add it to the saucepan with the butter. Stir to combine. Cook for 2 minutes.
Whisk in the milk and turn the heat to medium high. Bring the mixture to a boil and slowly temper the egg yolks with the hot milk. Once combined, stir in the grated gruyere cheese.
In a stand mixer, whisk the egg whites on medium speed until you achieve stiff peaks. Fold in 1/3 of the mixture until well combined. Fold in the rest carefully making sure not to deflate the mixture. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and bake immediately for 30-35 minutes. The souffle should have risen considerably and the top should be golden brown. Serve immediately.
