Emmentaler-Parmesan Soufflés



I've made many a soufflé - remember my Crab-Tarragon Soufflé or my Bear's Head Soufflé with Truffle-Beciamela?!? And when I saw girlichef post about her Irish Cheese Soufflés today, I was inspired. But I was also feeling a wee bit lazy. Then I remembered bookmarking an easy cheese soufflé from The Steamy Kitchen that didn't require all that whisking. I decided to give it a shot, simplifying the flavors a bit. This made 5 individual ramekin-servings.

7 large eggs
1/2 C organic sour cream
1/3 C organic whole milk
1 tablespoon butter, softened
5 T grated parmesan
5 T grated emmentaler

Preheat the oven to 350F. Using a hand blender, blend together the eggs, sour cream and milk for at least one minue. Brush the butter all over the inside of the ramekins. Place 1 T of parmesan and 1 T of emmentaler in the bottom of each dish, then pour the egg mixture gently over the top, leaving a small gap at the top to prevent spillage. Place the dishes in the oven, then carefully pour the remaining egg mixture to the top of each ramekin. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes—the soufflés will be golden brown, puffy like a balloon, and will have risen up to an inch above the ramekin. Serve immediately. As they cool, they will deflate.

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

photo by D For my Spice It Up! kiddos this week, I was looking for an exotic drink to serve while we learned about saffron. I found a recipe from food historian Maricel Presilla that mimicked traditional Spanish hot chocolate from the 17th century where it was served at lavish receptions called agasajos . When I teach, I don't always get to shoot photos. Thankfully, D grabbed my camera and snapped a few. Ingredients serves 14-16 1 gallon organic whole milk 3 T dried rosebuds - or 2 t rosewater 2 t saffron threads, lightly crushed 3 T ground cinnamon 3 whole tepin chiles, crushed 2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise 1 C organic granulated sugar 1 lb. bittersweet chocolate Procedure In a large soup pot that can hold a gallon plus, combine milk, dried rosebuds (or rosewater, if you are using that), saffron threads, ground cinnamon, chiles, vanilla beans, and sugar and warm over medium heat till it steams. Whisk to dissolve sugar, then lower heat an...

Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream

As we headed inland from the coast, I cringed as the temperature gauge in the car for outside temp climbed into the triple digits. Ugh. I'm a rather wimpy central coastal Californian who begins to wilt when it's 70 degrees outside. Thank goodness for air conditioning and a planned ice cream stop. When I parked the car outside Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream in Santa Rosa, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. We knew that we still had to get to the campsite...and set up our tents in the heat. But we were going to enjoy the cool, sweet treats from Frozen Art first! Michoacana ice creameries are the equivalent of Starbucks in Mexico; they're ubiquitous. Purists, however, claim that operating a true Michoacana ice cream shop require ties to Tocumbo. It's estimated that almost ninety percent of the Tocumban population is currently employed in the ice cream business from making ice cream itself to making equipment. But the real art of Tocumban ice creams: imaginat...
