Semolina Soufflé Cake
Semolin From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes about 45 minutes. If you have pistachio crème anglaise and tart cherry-pinot noir syrup, eggs, vanillan extract, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it.
Instructions
Butter and flour a 10-inch springform pan. Wrap the outside of the pan with foil.
In a large, heavy saucepan, combine the milk with 3/4 cup of the sugar and bring to a boil.
Whisk in the semolina and cook over low heat, whisking often, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in half of the butter and the remaining 3/4 cup of sugar and transfer to a large bowl.
Let the semolina cool completely, stirring occasionally. Stir in the remaining butter, then stir in the 3 whole eggs, 9 egg yolks and the vanilla.
In a large bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Stir one-third of the beaten egg whites into the semolina to lighten it, then fold in the remaining whites.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Set the cake pan in a roasting pan and add enough hot water to reach halfway up the side of the cake pan.
Bake in the center of the oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the cake is puffed and the center is still slightly jiggly.
Transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
Run a knife around the edge of the cake and remove the side of the springform pan.
Cut the cake into wedges and serve with the Pistachio Crme Anglaise and Tart Cherry-Pinot Noir Syrup.
