Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 and put a 2 1/4- to 2 1/2-qt. souffl dish in oven to heat.
Cook 1 cup sugar, 1/4 cup water, and the cream of tartar in a large frying pan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar turns deep golden, 8 to 12 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in zest of 1 orange. Protecting hands, remove dish from oven and pour caramelized sugar inside. Tilt dish until syrup thickens and evenly coats bottom and 1 to 2 in. up side.
Heat a kettle of water to boiling. In a bowl, whisk remaining 2/3 cup sugar and zest of 1 orange with remaining ingredients.
Pour into souffl dish and set dish in a 9-in. square baking pan. Put pan with dish on oven rack.
Pour boiling water into pan halfway up side of souffl dish.
Bake until a knife inserted halfway between center and edge comes out clean, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours.
Remove dish from water and let cool on a rack, then chill, covered, at least 4 hours.
Run a thin metal spatula around inside of dish, then invert onto a deep plate. Set souffl dish in hot water 10 minutes to loosen syrup (not all will come off); scrape syrup over flan.
Recommended wine: Tempranillo, Albarino, Grenache
Spanish can be paired with Tempranillo, Albarino, and Grenache. When pairing wine with Spanish dishes, why not follow the rule 'what grows together goes together'? We recommend albariño for white wine and garnachan and tempranillo for red. The Matchbook Tempranillo with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 15 dollars per bottle.
Matchbook Tempranillo
The 2013 Matchbook Tempranillo unfurls with Old World characteristics from two standout Spanish clones. The Ribera del Duero and Tinta de Toro vines grown on our estate contribute the familiar varietal flavors, while the traditional Rioja blending grape Graciano adds tannin and structure. Pronounced aromatics of ripe raspberry and rich plum lead to enticing flavors of earth, spicy cardamom and dark fruit. Smooth and soft on the palate, this seductive red has a bright finish that begs for another sip of this finely structured wine. Pair this Dunnigan Hills Tempranillo with a traditional Paella dish infused with saffron, mussels, shrimp and chorizo.
