I may have mentioned, I have a new recipe for something savory/sweet. It’s called a Chocolate Souffle.

Now last time I made these on Valentine’s Day I used the hand whisk to get the egg whites to the point just between soft peaks and stiff peaks. This time around I used the stick blender with its whisk  attachment. Much easier. And the quality of the Chocolate Souffle was better too. More cake like, less mousse like  and utterly perfect. This stuff really is spectacular and not hard to make. All it takes is butter, flour, milk, eggs, chocolate, sugar, salt and cayenne. Those eight ingredients, all mixed up and the whites folded and then baked – it’s just perfection. And adult sweet.
