Colman’s Fantasy Cheese Soufflé

Prep Time: 35 min.
Cook Time: 25 min.

Ingredients

Butter, room temperature, for greasing the souffle
2T. grated Parmesean
3 T. butter
3 T. flour
2 tsp. Colman’s Dry Mustard Powder
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/8 tsp. kosher salt
1 1/3 cups milk, hot
4 large egg yolks
6 ounces sharp cheddar cheese

5 egg whites plus 1 tablespoon water
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar

Directions
Use room temperature butter to grease an 8-inch souffle mold. Add the grated Parmesan and roll around the mold to cover the sides. Cover with plastic wrap and place into the freezer for 5 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
In a small saucepan, heat the butter. Allow all of the water to cook out.
In a separate bowl combine the flour, Colman’s Dry Mustard, garlic powder, and kosher salt. Whisk this mixture into the melted butter. Cook for 2 minutes.

Whisk in the hot milk and turn the heat to high. Once the mixture reaches a boil, remove from the heat.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks to a creamy consistency. Temper the yolks by adding 1/3 of milk mixture, constantly whisking. Add second 1/3, whisking constantly, add the final 1/3, whisking. Add the cheese. Whisk until incorporated to form the soufflé base.
In a separate bowl, using a hand mixer, whip the egg whites and cream of tartar until glossy and firm. Stif 1/4 of the mixture into the base to lighten it. Continue to add the remaining whites by thirds, folding very gently.
Pour the mixture into the soufflé. Fill the soufflé to 1/2-inch from the top. Place on a baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 35 minutes.

About Colman’s
Established in 1814, Colman’s of Norwich has been recognized widely as the English mustard in the U.K. Using a unique and zesty blend of brown mustard seeds (Brassica Juncea) and white mustard seeds (Sinapis Alba), Jeremiah Colman created a mustard with a flavorful heat sensation that has become an essential condiment and paramount ingredient in Britain’s favorite recipes, even to the highest royal order. In 1866 Queen Victoria bestowed the ultimate seal of approval - the Royal Warrant – galvanizing Colman’s as the crown jewel of mustards, securing its place in the most discerning kitchens around the world.
