The Art of the Perfect Gluten-Free Soufflé

The name soufflé comes from the French verbsouffler,which means to puff up. A soufflé is a light, fluffy baked dish made by folding stiffly beaten egg whites into a cooled sauce and then baking it. The egg whites expand during baking, causing the soufflé to rise.

The key to a perfect soufflé is the oven temperature. If the temperature is too low, the soufflé will not rise properly. On the other hand, if the temperature is too high, the soufflé turns into a popover with big air pockets in the middle. For best results, the oven temperature should be set to 350 F.
