This was my first souffle. Easier to make than I thought and was a nice first course to a nice dinner. I would not make this particular one again though. The rosemary is too much it overpowers. The broccoli is also pretty strong. I was expecting the goat cheese to really stand out and it didn't due to the other strong flavors. It baked up really nice (about 35 min in a large souffle dish) looked pretty and had a wonderful texture just not the flavors I was expecting.
I made this recipe this week for dinner. I used an herbed goat cheese so I skipped the rosemary. I also couldn't find my cream of tartar so I skipped it. It turned out great! My carnivorous husband even liked this meat free meal.
Excellent and my kids love it When I first made this I hadn't made a souffle before and I was so pleased by how well it came out. An unexpected bonus: my kids loved it! they are age 7 and 9 and they ask me to put it on the weekly menu. It is a big family favorite. Note that for 4 of us I have to double the recipe. Pros: Tastes great looks elegant Cons: Takes a while to prepare
Any suggestions for a goat cheese substitute that has less total fat?
No wow factor for me I prepared my first souffle today using this recipe. I was very excited especially at the moment I saw my souffle raising in the oven. It looked beautiful! I served it to my boyfriend and both our verdicts are similar the dish was bland not so great as it looked the portion was too big for two people and we have leftover for tomorrow. We added salt and pepper and ate it with yoghurt. Unfortunately I will not repeat that dish - I will try other souffle recipes hoping the next one will be fantastic.... Pros: Easy to make little time needed for preparation Cons: Bland I would epect more flavours
Totally red! I made this as a treat yesterday but I want to make sure no one thinks it is healthy! There are way too many yellows and unless you use low fat cheese all the cheese is red. My family is losing weight using www.kurbo.com just like everyone else around us and all of my friends agreed that this recipe has too many reds.
This tasted OK the goat cheese was sometimes overpowering in certain bites but others not. I used a large souffle dish not the ramekins. I cooked it for 30 minutes and used a thermometer to check to make sure it got up to temperature. It was at 160 degrees but the middle was runny. It still tasted OK and the top was quite brown but maybe wait for it to get to 165 degrees. It said serve immediately so I didn't let it sit. It looked really nice but I wont be making it again. Could use more salt and some pepper.
Even after reading the reviews I was still very nervous to make a souffle. But it came out as good as the picture. A few things to mention: first the recipe didn't say how high to fill the souffle dish so I piled them up above the rim and they turned out nice and puffy. Also I used little ramekins and they were added a delicate touch to the presentation. I couldn't really take the rosemary and I think it could have used a bit more salt and a touch of pepper. Overall it was pretty good. I'd make it again.
Fast and delicious This is a fantastic recipe super easy and delicious we've made it dozens of times now its great with whole grain bread from the bakery and a salad. A fast elegant dinner and the leftovers heat well the next day for lunch. Pros: Easy Cons: You really need to own ramekins which some people may not have in kitchen
