Yum! They came out perfectly - and rose very nicely. I could see adding a little more Grand Marnier and orange zest next time for a more pronounced flavor, but it was a light, airy, subtle and absolutely delicious desert. :)
Absolutely delicious. We returned from a trip to France, and I knew I had to learn how to make this wonderful dessert. I followed the recipe exactly along with the Grand Marnier Anglaise Ssauce (which I made the evening before). I do recommend watching Chef John's video to get a good feel for how long to cook the flour and butter and how far to whip the egg yolks at various stages. Not only is the video very helpful, he's quite entertaining. After cooking as directed, I quickly sprinkled powdered sugar on the souffle before serving and then let each guest spoon the Grand Marnier Anglaise Sauce into the top of their souffle. I prepared as much as I could before my guests arrived -- had everything measured everything out, zested, separated eggs. They were amazed and duly impressed. Exquisite dessert!
This was amazing. My first souffle was quite impressive thanks to you. Your video was very informative.
Worked perfectly. I didn't use the creme anglaise recipe here, I used a different one on you tube. However the soufflé turned out perfect. Yes, you have to eat it right out of the oven or it will deflate. I doubled the soufflé recipe to make 4. Likewise I had 7oz ramekins, so I filled it to the top. Looked just like the pictures in the video and tasted fabulous. It was surprisingly easy to make.
There were three of us, the picture ( I accidentally added the picture twice, it's the lone soufflé in the blue ramekin on the tinfoil covered baking pan on the stove) is the extra one which we quickly devoured. The other three were better looking, but the extra was darn near perfect too. I did cheat and used an electric hand mixer on the egg whites.
Not enough orange flavour, definitely will add more next time. Good base Soufflé for other flavours.
My first time making a souffle! Came out perfect and super delish! My daughter and I devoured it! Thanks for a great recipe!
This was my first souffle and it came out awesome. It rose fine and with the addition of the creme sauce it's truly amazing. Thanks..
