It's seems I have been so busy since moving to the Bay area in the spring for the new job that it's been really difficult to post on a regular basis. I'm feeling a bit embarrassed by how infrequent I've been. I have still tried to make time to enjoy some time in the kitchen though, and to enjoy the fruits of my labor. I recently attempted my very first souffle. While I've heard stories of how challenging a souffle can be, I am looking forward to making many more in the future.This Blue Cheese Souffle from the Barefoot Contessa was surprising easily and we absolutely loved the way it turned out. If you're a fan of blue cheese, you must really give this souffle a try. I just loved the taste of the blue cheese with the somewhat crunchy and tangy Parmesan and butter coating on the sides of it. The souffle was excellent paired with a salad of fresh mixed greens. Since I was unsure of exactly how to serve it I ended up deflating it, but have since learned from our Betty Crocker cookbook how a souffle should be separated instead of spooned out. It was so enjoyable I will look forward to making this souffle again, but I'll probably first attempt a chocolate one!
Ok, a souffle is just one of the best things around, and it sounds fantastic with blue cheese! What a great menu--this with a nice salad would be perfect! Glad to hear you have been doing some more baking like this--pursuing the chocolate version next sounds like a great plan.
