INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/2 cups sifted OO flour
- 2 tsp corn starch
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp cream of tartar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 4 tbsp melted butter
- 1 large egg yolk
- 3 large egg whites
- 1/2 cup grated old cheddar
- 1 splash olive oil
- 2 ears charred & shucked corn
- 1/4 diced red pepper
- 1 diced green onion
- 1 cup double smoked bacon lardons
METHOD
Whisk together all the flour, cornstarch, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
In a separate bowl mix, butter, milk, egg yolk and cheddar.
In a stand mixer beat the egg whites and cream of tartar to a very very very stiff peak. Let sit for one minute
Now whisk the wet milk mixture into the dry flour mixture. Very gently fold in your perfectly peaked egg whites.
Splash your ring molds with olive oil and place into a low heat non stick pan. Fill up the ring molds to 60% cover with a lid. Flip after 6 minutes. Repeat
In a medium heat sauté pan add a splash of olive oil, corn, peppers and green onion. Season and toss for a couple minutes.
In a medium non stick pan, render bacon lardons until crispy.
Place corn down in the middle of the plate. Top with cheddar Soufflés and garnish with bacon.
