Frozen Lemon Soufflés
Ingredients
6
pasteurized eggs, separated, at room temperature
⅔ cup
sugar
¼ cup
Kowalski's Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice (from the Produce Department)
- freshly grated zest of 2 lemons
2 cups
heavy cream
6 oz.
canned frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
- whipped cream or whipped topping and lemon zest curls (see Tasty Tip), for garnish
Directions
- Using parchment paper, make a collar around 6 (4 oz.) ramekins so that each collar stands about 1" above the top of each dish; secure well with tape.
- In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat egg whites to stiff peaks (3-4 min.); set aside.
- In another large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat yolks, sugar, lemon juice and zest until very light and fluffy (about2 min.).
- Add heavy cream to egg yolk mixture; beat until soft peaks form.
- Gently stir in lemonade concentrate (lemon mixture will soften).
- Gently fold in egg whites, taking care to keep as much air/volume in the mixture as possible.
- Divide mixture evenly among ramekins; place in freezer for at least 8 hrs. or overnight.
- About 10 min. before serving, remove ramekins from freezer to thaw slightly.
- Remove paper collars; garnish with whipped cream and lemon zest curls.
Tasty Tip:
- To make lemon zest curls: Working around the width of the lemon (rather than top to bottom), use a vegetable peeler to remove long, thin strips of lemon peel, leaving behind as much of the bitter white pith as possible. Use a sharp knife to slice strips lengthwise to desired width. Trim to desired length, if needed. Tightly wind strips around a chopstick or straw; wrap securely with plastic wrap and let rest for 30 min. before unwinding curls.
