Cooking Recipe Butternut Squash Souffle
Recipe Ingredients
Directions
Cut squash in thick chunks and remove seeds. Bake covered with water
at 350 degrees F. until tender. Using a food processor, blender, or
food mill, puree squash until smooth.
Melt butter, add flour, and cook briefly. Add milk, stirring, and
cook until thickened. Stir in ginger, cinnamon, salt, sugar, orange
juice, and squash puree. Cool slightly, then add beaten egg yolks.
Beat 7 egg whites until stiff but not dry, and fold into squash
mixture.
Spoon into 2-quart souffle dish and place dish in pan filled with
water halfway up side of dish. Bake 1-1/2 hours at 350 degrees F.
