Ingredients:
2 ounces Asiago Pressato DOP
2 ounces Asiago D’Allevo DOP
2 ounces Speck Alto Adige IGP, chopped
6 large eggs
1 / 2 cup half and half
8 ounces Mascarpone Cheese
Nonstick cooking spray
Equipment:
Blender or food processor with steel blade
4-quart Soufflé dish, individual soufflé dishes or cupcake pans
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Place the Speck Alto Adige IGP in the food processor and finely mince. Add cheeses and mince.
Add the eggs, and half-and-half. Blend until smooth.
With processor running, break off pieces of Mascarpone and add to the processor. After all mascarpone cheese is incorporated, blend at high speed for 5 seconds.
Spray a 4-cup soufflé dish or equivalent deep baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. You can also make 10-12 individual soufflés in a cupcake or muffin pan. Pour in the batter and place in the oven.
Bake until puffed and golden:
Large soufflé for 45 minutes
Small for 15-20 minutes
Note: Surface could crack during baking.
Chef’s Tips: After baking, soufflé can be held in oven with door ajar for short time before serving.
Serving suggestion: prepare individual soufflés and serve atop a mixed green salad with vinaigrette dressing or on a bed of sautéed spinach.
