Caramel Soufflé , Caramel Soufflé with Eggs
by Tarla Dalal
Wondering whether there is one dessert that can please all? Well, it has to be a soufflé! With a indescribable consistency that is fluffy, creamy, soft and melt-in-the-mouth, soufflés have a knack of making everybody smile.
This is one such admirable souffle, which uses eggs to get an authentic, super-soft mouth-feel. The rich flavour of caramel heightened by the addition of brown sugar gives this soufflé a taste that pampers your senses.
Make sure the oven-safe bowls are filled only up to half to avoid spilling when the souffle rises. Also ensure that the caramel mixture is completely cool before adding the egg white mixture.
The Caramel Souffle should a little unset in the middle, but should not be runny after baking. The right consistency is the key to the success of a souffle, so take good care of this aspect.
You can also try your hand at making other soufflés like the Mango Souffle or Strawberry Soufflé .
