Corned Beef Souffl�s

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 tablespoons flour
2 cups cold milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
6 egg yolks from large eggs
2/3 cup grated Gruy�re cheese
2/3 cup diced, cooked corned beef
5 egg whites from large eggs
Hot water
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup cr�me fr�iche or sour cream
1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard
1 bunch chives, chopped

Cook's note: If making a day ahead or for a large party, remove baked, cooled souffl�s from ramekins and store in closed container in refrigerator.

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter 8 ramekins.

2. In 2-quart saucepan over medium-high heat, melt butter. Whisk in flour and continue cooking 2-3 minutes, being careful not to let it brown. While whisking continuously, add milk all at once and whisk until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook until thick. Remove from heat, tip into a bowl and cool until tepid.

3. Whisk egg yolks into souffl� base. Stir in cheese and corned beef.

4. Beat egg whites starting at slow speed until frothy, then switching to high speed until stiff. Mix 1/3 of whites into souffl� base, stirring to lighten base, then gently fold in remaining whites until fully incorporated. Do not overmix.

5. Have hot water handy in teakettle. Fill each ramekin with souffl� mixture. Place in large baking pan with 2-inch sides. Place pan on middle shelf of oven and pour hot water into pan until water level is halfway up sides of ramekins.

6. Bake 20-30 minutes. The souffl�s will have risen well above tops of ramekins. Remove from oven. Cool completely in ramekins.

7. To reheat and serve: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine cream, cr�me fr�iche and mustard and pour into bottom of gratin pan or small baking dishes. Place souffl�s on top of the mustard cr�me and bake 8-10 minutes, until warm and bubbly. They will gently repuff. Garnish with chives and serve.

Yield: 8 individual souffl�s
