      Title: Maman's Cheese Souffle From Jacques Pepin
 Categories: Cheese, Eggs, Dairy, Vegetables
      Yield: 4 servings
 
      6 tb Unsalted butter, plus
           - additional to butter a 5
           -  to 6 cup gratin dish
    1/4 c  Fine grated Parmesan cheese
      6 tb All-purpose flour
      2 c  Whole milk
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Freshly ground black pepper
      6 lg Eggs
  2 1/2 c  Gruyere (about 6 oz)
           +=PLUS=+
      3 sl (2" X 3") Gruyere
      3 tb Minced chives
 
  Set the oven @ 400ºF/205ºC.
  
  Butter a 5 to 6 cup gratin dish, sprinkle the bottom and
  sides with half the Parmesan, and set it aside. Melt the
  6 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan, then add the
  flour and mix it in well with a whisk. Cook for 10
  seconds, add the cold milk in one stroke and mix it in
  with a whisk. Keep stirring with the whisk until the
  mixture thickens and comes to a strong boil, about 2
  minutes. It should be thick and smooth. Remove from the
  heat, and stir in the salt and pepper.
  
  Break the eggs into a bowl and beat well with a fork.
  After about 10 minutes, the white sauce should be cool
  enough to proceed. Moving quickly, add the eggs, cheese
  and the chives to the sauce, and mix well to combine.
  Pour into the buttered gratin dish and cook immediately,
  or set aside until ready to cook. If setting aside for a
  few hours, the souffle can remain outside at room
  temperature. If assembling a day ahead, refrigerate and
  bring back to room temperature before baking.
  
  Sprinkle the surface with the remaining 2 tablespoons of
  Parmesan and arrange the 3 slices of Gruyere in a circle
  in the center, if using. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or
  until puffy and well browned on top. Although it will
  stay inflated for quite awhile, it is best served
  immediately.
