    When you're flouring your ramekins, why not put all the flour in one ramekin, then swish it around and tap the excess flour into the next ramekin, and so on? It's less messy.
    I think the main ingredient in a soufflé is... air. When you whip egg whites, you're creating an emulsion, not of two liquids, but liquid and air. The cream of tartar is an emulsifier, like mustard in mayonnaise.
    I like the way you sneak the background music well in advance under the dialogue and bump it up during the unspoken parts, always at appropriate levels, not too loud and not too soft. It's smooth. I also like snap-snap "Bowl me!"

    • @brucetidwell7715

      And I always thought the mustard in mayonnaise was just for flavor. Fortunately, I never left it out.

    • @etienne8110
      @etienne8110 Před rokem +6

      @@brucetidwell7715 actually it is. You can make your emulsion without it.
      Just try to make a mayonnaise without it, it will work. Jut that you'll have to whip a bit more.
      The emulsion is between the water of the egg yolk and the lipids in the oil and yolk.
      The emulsion is more stable in an acidic solution, thus you can use mustard, vinegar or lime juice to help.
      Cooking is chemistry. ^^

    The first soufflé I ever made was under great emotional stress (death in the family). I was cooking like crazy and it was a lot of food-nobody was hungry that week. I was "stress baking" as my sister called it. The only thing that I can remember making was a chocolate soufflé that turned out great. I should really try making one again.

  • @DelGuy03
    @DelGuy03 Před 2 lety +35

    As usual, in her later books Julia gets less purist about technique -- she admitted to having originally been excessively "holy" about the traditional French way. She came to encourage the use of a stand mixer and sometimes cornstarch and/or cream of tartar.
    Also, usually the techniques and times really apply to baking it in one big container. Using small ramekins throws the proportions off (e.g. getting the interior baked takes longer if it's a bigger mass), so I think you did very well to get it to come out as well as you did. And they do collapse quickly, whatever you do. As she later said, "If the puff holds up until you show it off at the table, you have won!"

      @@hadronoftheseus8829 I have only seen one large chocolate souflee made on the American Baking Competition, the first US adaptation of the Great British Bake Off. They did as a technical challenge, with contestants beginning at staggered times so the judges got each one fresh from the oven. They scooped up servings like you would scoop up a serving of trifle. So it deflates quickly as you dig the spoon in.

    You can add cream of tartar to the egg whites in Mastering I recipes.
    In Julia's later books she always adds it to the whites in her souffles, cakes and meringues.
    She doesn't seem to discover cream of tartar until The French Chef Cookbook. Compare the recipe for Reine de Saba in Mastering I and in The French Chef Cookbook. In the French Chef Cookbook there's cream of tartar which isn't in Mastering I. Same with her French Chef Cookbook souffles. They have cream of tartar. In all subsequent books, Mastering II, From JC's Kitchen, JC & Co, etc. there's always cream of tartar.
    It's strange that in their later revision of Mastering I they didn't add cream of tartar to the recipes.

    I know this is a year later, and if someone hasn't already mentioned it, anytime a recipe has you put pats of butter over something while it cools is to keep it from forming a skin. You used milk and scalded it. Without the butter on top, it could form a thick skin making it difficult to fold in the egg whites.

    Not that anyone asked:
    1. With cinnamon toast, a little fruit and a cup of coffee, chocolate soufflé makes a nice breakfast.
    2. *Dead simple chocolate mousse*: For each person, 1 ounce chocolate and an egg, and maybe some sugar and/or liquor.
    Separate the eggs. Pull the cords (chalazae) off the yolks. Melt the chocolate. Let it cool so it's still kind of liquid, but not hot enough to cook eggs, and then mix it with the yolks. (Optional: spike it with whatever liquor you think would be nice in chocolate mousse.). Beat the egg whites stiff. (Optional: add sugar if you think the chocolate might not be sweet enough on its own.) Fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture, then pour it all into serving dishes and set them into the refrigerator. The mousse will be very runny at first, but will firm up after an hour or so.
    NB, this recipe can *also* be used for chocolate soufflé; the only difference is that for soufflés, you would pour the mixture into prepared ramekins and bake them.
