Soufflé

Soufflé is a light, airy cake that originated in France. This cake is also referred to as “one of the great miracles of the French kitchen.” Although it is normally regarded as a dessert, it can also be a main dish. Soufflé comes from the word souffler, a French verb that means to ‘blow up’ or ‘puff up.’ This food is one of the most well known foods of French cuisine. Like many French dishes, a soufflé is meant to impress. It is beautiful, light, and puffy, and takes a great deal of skill to master.

Soufflés are most commonly made with chocolate, cheese, fruits, or lemons. Since a soufflé can also be a main dish, it is also made with potatoes, seafood, poultry, or meats. After being cooked, a soufflé is puffed up and fluffy, and it will generally fall after 5 or 10 minutes. It can also be served with a sauce on the top, such as a sweet dessert sauce or powdered sugar.When served, the top of a soufflé may be punctured with serving utensils to separate it into individual servings.
