The world’s simplest souffle, post014

---

This is the world’s simplest soufflé. It is not the world’s best, but it is the simplest. How simple is it? The only ingredient is one egg. In this video I will demonstrate making this soufflé, and will discuss how to improve upon it.

Prep time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 11 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 egg

Instructions:

1. Separate the yolk and white from the egg.
2. Beat the yolk until creamy.
3. Beat the white until it forms soft peaks.
4. Add 1/3 of the whites to the yolk and stir.
5. Add yolk mixture to whites and fold together until just mixed.
6. Bake at 350 F for 11 minutes.

The result is the worlds simplest soufflé. No, it isn’t the best, in fact, it immediately deflates once you begin eating, but it is the simplest. I made this video to demonstrate that soufflés aren’t as complex as people make them out to be. I will be extending this recipe in the weeks to come.

I have since posted a video showing how adding a pinch of flour and splash of water significantly improves the final product. You can see this video here: https://steemit.com/steemkitchen/@spbeckman/x7po0kgf
