Ah, soufflé – the ultimate culinary gamble. There’s nowhere to hide when it comes to the soufflé. If it works, you’re a Michelin star chef in your own kitchen, lapping up adoring praise from your guests. If it doesn’t, you’re scrambling for your car keys and finding change for a Viennetta.
We’re not sure where the fear came from, though. Sure, there are some steadfast rules on how to make soufflés that absolutely must be adhered to and you need to know your oven temperature pretty well – if it runs a bit hotter or colder than advertised, that’ll significantly affect your timings. But aside from that, soufflés are nothing to be scared of. We’ve rounded up eight of our favourite recipes to tantalise your taste buds and prove just that, and you can check out our entire collection of soufflé recipes here.
