Delicious Cornmeal Souffle


I remember eating a cornmeal souffle at my grandmother's house when I was a child, so I found out how to make a cornmeal souffle. It is a food that is a bread and a meal all in the same dish. But the aroma in the house when it is cooking just can't be beat. There are many, many versions of a cornmeal souffle, but I think this one is so simple that you will keep it and cook it over and over again.

This cornmeal souffle is a refined version of spoon bread. Spoon bread is a baked cornmeal mixture that can be served warm and topped with butter. It is usually served as a replacement for potatoes or rice in the meal.

This cornmeal souffle is rather delicate because it has whipped egg whites folded in, but it is not as fragile as a classic souffle. This cornmeal souffle is usually served with foods that have a sauce or a gravy.

So why not read this recipe and start cooking your cornmeal souffle today.

Ingredients:

2 cups milk
1/3 cup white cornmeal
3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon butter
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
3 eggs, separated

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Put the milk in a heavy saucepan and heat to just below the boiling temperature. Slowly whisk in the cornmeal and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring or whisking constantly for 5 minutes.

Remove from heat and pour into a mixing bowl. Stir in 3 tablespoons of the butter and the salt. Let cool for 15 minutes. Then beat in the three egg yolks. Butter a 4 cup souffle or baking dish with the remaining butter.

Beat the egg whites just until they form soft mounds. Stir a third of the beaten whites into the cornmeal mixture to lighten it. Carefully fold in the remaining whites and gently turn the batter into the buttered baking dish. Bake for 25-30 minutes until it has risen and turned golden brown. Serve immediately.
