Steps:

• Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 400°F. Generously butter one 10-cup soufflé dish or six 1 1/4-cup soufflé dishes; sprinkle with minced thyme to coat. (If using 1 1/4-cup dishes, place all 6 on rimmed baking sheet.) Heat olive oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and minced garlic. Cook without browning until mixture begins to bubble, whisking constantly, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in whole milk, then white wine. Cook until smooth, thick and beginning to boil, whisking constantly, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix egg yolks and salt in small bowl. Add egg yolk mixture all at once to sauce; whisk quickly to blend. Mix in 1 tablespoon basil, 1 tablespoon thyme and 1 teaspoon rosemary. Fold in cold goat cheese and Gruyère cheese (cheeses do not need to melt).

AMALIA'S GOAT-CHEESE SOUFFLAZY

Steps:

• Adjust an oven rack to the center position. Heat oven to 425 degrees.
• Grease the bottom and sides of a 9-by-12-inch rimmed baking sheet or 10-inch springform pan. Set aside.
• Make a water bath: Fill a medium pot with 2 inches of water, and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
• In a large metal bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, goat cheese, thyme, a pinch of salt and black pepper until the cheese breaks down. Reduce the heat so that the water stops simmering but continues to steam, and set the bowl over the pot. Whisk continuously until the mixture lightens in color and begins to thicken slightly. Use a rubber spatula to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl every minute or so. The bowl should never get so hot that the eggs cook and begin to stick to the sides. When the mixture is thick, foamy and very warm to the touch (about 6 minutes), remove bowl from heat, and stir in Gruyère. Taste, adjust seasoning with salt as needed and set aside in a warm spot.
• Combine egg whites and a pinch of salt in another large metal bowl, and set over water bath. Using a clean whisk, whip egg whites over the water until they are very warm to the touch. Alternatively, use an electric hand mixer fitted with whisk attachment set to slow speed to beat whites until they are very warm to the touch. Remove bowl from heat, and continue whipping to silky, medium-stiff peaks, about 4 minutes total by hand or 3 minutes total with electric mixer.
• Use a rubber spatula to gently add in half the egg whites to the yolk mixture, and fold until combined. Fold in remaining whites, scraping through to the bottom of the bowl to ensure thorough mixing. Pour mixture into prepared baking sheet (or cake pan), and slide carefully onto center oven rack.
• Bake for 11 to 13 minutes (18 to 21 minutes if using cake pan), refraining from opening the oven door, until the soufflé puffs up, turns golden brown and an inserted wooden skewer comes out mostly (but not entirely) clean. If you jiggle the pan, there should be the slightest hint of wiggle left to the soufflé.
• Use a serving spoon to scoop onto plates. Serve immediately with buttered toast and green salad, if desired.

GOAT'S CHEESE, SPRING ONION & PARSLEY SOUFFLéS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Butter four 200ml ramekins or ovenproof dishes, or six 150ml ones. Set the dishes on a baking tray to make them easier to remove from the oven. Melt the butter in a heavy-based pan, stir in the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 min. Slowly mix in the milk to make a thick sauce. Simmer for 2 mins to cook the flour. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley, spring onions, goat's cheese, egg yolks, threequarters of the parmesan and seasoning.
• Whisk the egg whites until they are stiff, then fold into the sauce in three batches, cutting through the mixture each time to incorporate the egg white without losing too much air from the mix. Divide between the prepared dishes and sprinkle with the remaining parmesan. Bake for 20 mins for the small dishes and 25 mins for the larger ones until risen and golden. Serve without delay.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Rub inside of six 3/4-cup soufflé dishes or ramekins with 2 tablespoons butter. Coat with breadcrumbs; tap out excess. Set aside.
• Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add flour and cook 2 minutes, whisking constantly. Gradually whisk in milk. Increase heat to medium. Simmer mixture until very thick, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes. Add half of goat cheese and whisk until melted and smooth. Mix in salt and pepper. Whisk egg yolks in medium bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in hot soufflé base. Cool 5 minutes.
• Beat whites in large bowl until stiff but not dry. Mix 1/4 of whites into soufflé base to lighten. Fold in remaining whites. Fold in remaining goat cheese. Divide mixture among prepared soufflé dishes. Place in 13x9x2-inch metal baking pan. Add enough hot water to pan to come halfway up sides of dishes.
• Bake soufflés until puffed and golden brown on top and softly set in center, about 20 minutes. Serve soufflés immediately in their dishes. Or for twice-baked version, cool soufflés in dishes in water for 5 minutes. Remove soufflés from water. Run small sharp knife around sides of dishes to loosen soufflés. Turn out onto buttered baking sheet. Refrigerate up to 4 hours. Before serving, rewarm soufflés on same sheet in 350°F oven until heated through, about 10 minutes.

SPINACH GOAT CHEESE SOUFFLé

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a 6-cup soufflé dish or an 8-cup gratin dish and coat it with the Parmesan. Heat the milk with the aromatics until it boils. Set it aside to steep for 15 minutes, then strain.Meanwhile, cook the spinach leaves with water still clinging to them until tender. Strain. (You can use other greens as well; chard and tender kale come to mind.)
• When the spinach is wilted, remove from pan and strain out the moisture and set aside. Melt the butter in a saucepan. When foamy, stir in the flour and cook over low heat for several minutes. Whisk in the milk all at once and stir vigorously for a minute or so as it thickens, then add 3/4 teaspoon salt, a few twists of pepper, and the cayenne. Remove from heat. Beat in the egg yolks one at a time until well blended, then stir in the cheese. Don't worry about getting it smooth. Finely chop the spinach and and season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg. Add to the egg base. Season the mixture with salt and pepper.

Remove, scatter the thyme over the top, and serve immediately.
