Georgia Peach Souffle Recipes

GEORGIA PEACH SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Generously butter six 8-ounce ramekins. Set aside on a rimmed baking sheet.
• In the work bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade, pulse the peaches until coarsely chopped. (The pieces should be no large than1/4 inch in size.) Remove 3/4 cup of the chopped peaches and place 2 tablespoons of them in each of the prepared ramekins. Set aside.
• Add the lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the remaining chopped peaches in the bowl of the food processor. Process until very smooth and pureed. Transfer 1 cup of the peach puree to a bowl, discarding any remainder or reserve for another use, such as an ice cream topping or base for a smoothie. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with the whisk, beat the egg whites with a pinch of the salt on medium speed until foamy. Add about 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar and beat on high speed until the whites hold soft peaks, 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly add the remaining granulated sugar and beat on high speed until the whites are glossy and hold stiff peaks when the whisk is lifted.
• Add about a quarter of the beaten egg whites to the peach puree mixture and stir until well mixed. Pour this mixture over the remaining egg whites and fold them together as lightly as possible.
• Spoon the mixture into the prepared souffles ramekins (the mixture should come up to the top of each). Smooth the top with a metal spatula. Run your thumb around the inside of the rim of each dish, making a shallow channel around the edge of the batter. (This will help the souffles rise up straight and tall.) Set the filled souffles ramekins on the rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake until puffed, golden, and gently set in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, and serve immediately.

INDIVIDUAL PEACH SOUFFLéS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Generously butter six 8-ounce ramekins and place them on a rimmed baking sheet.
• In a food processor, pulse the peaches until coarsely chopped. (You want the pieces to be no larger than 1/4 inch.)
• Place 2 tablespoons of the chopped peaches in each of the prepared ramekins.
• Add the lemon juice, vanilla, and a pinch of salt to the remaining chopped peaches in the food processor. Process until very smooth and puréed. Transfer 1 cup of the peach purée to a bowl; reserve any remaining peach mixture to spoon over yogurt or blend into a smoothie.
• In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on medium speed, beat the egg whites with a pinch of the salt until foamy. Add about 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar and beat on high speed until the whites hold soft peaks, 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly add the remaining granulated sugar and continue to beat on high until the whites are glossy and hold stiff peaks when the whisk is lifted.
• Add about 1/4 of the beaten egg whites to the peach purée mixture and gently stir until well combined. Pour this mixture over the remaining whites and fold them together as lightly as possible.
• Spoon the mixture into the prepared soufflé ramekins (the mixture should come up to the top of each). Smooth the top with a metal spatula. Run your thumb around the inside rim of each dish, making a shallow channel around the edge of the batter, to help the soufflés rise up straight and tall.
• Bake the souffles in the ramekins on the baking sheet until puffed, golden, and gently set in the center, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove the souffles from the oven, sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, and serve immediately.

PEACH MELBA SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees; adjust rack to lower third of oven. Lightly spray a 1 1/2-quart souffle dish with vegetable spray, then coat dish with 2 tablespoons of sugar; lightly tap out excess sugar and set aside. In a nonreactive saucepan, combine the peaches, 5 tablespoons sugar, lemon juice, and 4 tablespoons water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and cook until the peaches are broken down and reach a sauce like consistency, about 20 minutes. Puree in a food processor and return to the saucepan.
• In a small bowl, stir together Cuarenta y Tres and cornstarch until dissolved. Place the peach puree over medium heat; whisk in the cornstarch mixture until mixture comes to a boil, 3 to 4 minutes; continue whisking for about 30 seconds. Transfer mixture to a large bowl set over ice water to cool; stir frequently for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt in an electric mixer; beat on medium-low speed until foamy. Slowly add 3 tablespoons sugar, then beat on high speed until stiff but not dry.
• Gently fold about a quarter of the beaten egg whites into the chilled peach puree until thoroughly combined. Fold in the remaining egg whites and 3/4 cup raspberries; gently spoon the mixture into the prepared souffle dish. Bake until souffle is firm and has risen 1 to 2 inches over the top rim of dish and is a deep golden brown, about 45 to 50 minutes.
• While souffle is baking, make the sauce: In a small saucepan, combine remaining raspberries and remaining 3 tablespoons sugar; place over medium-high heat. Simmer until the berries release their juices and are somewhat broken down, 5 to 7 minutes. Pass through a fine strainer two times, discarding the seeds, and let cool for 5 minutes. Remove souffle from the oven and serve with warm raspberry sauce.
