"I prefer to regard a dessert as I would imagine the perfect woman: subtle, a little bittersweet, not blowsy and extrovert. Delicately made up, not highly rouged. Holding back, not exposing everything and, of course, with a flavor that lasts."
Graham Kerr (the Galloping Gourmet)


"The dessert crowns the dinner. To create a fine dessert, one has to combine the skills of a confectioner, a decorator, a painter, an architect, an ice-cream manufacturer, a sculptor, and a florist. The splendour of such creations appeals above all to the eye - the real gourmand admires them without touching them! The magnificence of the dessert should not allow one to forget the cheese. Cheese complements a good dinner and supplements a bad one."
Eugene Briffault

Hot Gooseberry Souffle

 

Ingredients

1/4 cup gooseberry puree, thick and sweeten, ed
6 tbsp butter
1/2 cup flour
1 cup milk
3 large eggs, separated



 

Preparation

In a heavy pan, melt the butter over low heat. As the butte melts,
stir in the flour. Stir until smooth and blended, then gradually add
the milk, stirring all the time so that the mixture remains smooth.
Bring to the boiling point, still stirring, and cook for three
minutes. Add the gooseberry puree and stir until thoroughly mixed.

Beat the egg yolks until they are light and combine them with the
gooseberry mixture. Beat the whites until they are stiff (this means
that you can turn the bowl upside down without any ill effect), and
use a metal spoon to gently fold the whites into the gooseberry
mixture.

Lightly oil a 5-cup soffle dish. Turn the mixture into the souffle
dish and bake on the middle shelf of a preheated 375-degreeF oven for
about 45 minutes. By this time the souffle should be crisp on the
outside and still creamy on the inside. (For a more creamy result,
bake the soffle in a water bath: Stand the souffle dish in a pan and
pour enough hot water into the pan to cover the sides of the dish by
about 2 inches.)

Remember that the souffle will not remain at its best for more than a
few minutes after leaving the oven.
