Author: Steve Anderson
Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 6 to 8
Ingredients
  • 5 large eggs, separated
  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
  • ⅔ cup granulated sugar (4¾ ounces)
  • ⅛ teaspoon table salt
  • ⅓ cup juice and 1 teaspoon grated zest from 2 to 3 lemons
  • 2 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Instructions
  1. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Using stand mixer, whip egg whites and cream of tartar together on medium-low speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Slowly add ⅓ cup sugar and salt, then increase speed to medium-high and continue to whip until stiff peaks form, 3 to 5 minutes. Gently transfer whites to clean bowl and set aside.
  2. Using a stand mixer (no need to wash mixing bowl), whip yolks and remaining ⅓ cup sugar together on medium-high speed until pale and thick, about 1 minute. Whip in lemon juice, zest, and flour until incorporated, about 30 seconds.
  3. Whisk ¼ of whipped egg whites into yolk mixture until almost no white streaks remain. Gently fold in remaining egg whites until just incorporated.
  4. Melt butter in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-low heat. Swirl pan to coat evenly with melted butter, then gently scrape soufflé batter into skillet and cook until edges begin to set and bubble slightly, about 2 minutes.
  5. Transfer skillet to oven and bake soufflé until puffed, center jiggles slightly when shaken, and the surface is golden, 7 to 11 minutes. Using potholder (skillet handle will be hot), remove skillet from oven. Dust soufflé with confectioners’ sugar and serve immediately.
Notes
Don’t open the oven door during the first seven minutes of baking, but do check the soufflé regularly for doneness during the final few minutes in the oven. Be ready to serve the soufflé immediately after removing it from the oven. A 10-inch skillet is essential to getting the right texture and height.
