Equipment

Directions

  1. Butter 4 souffl dishes (1 1/4- to 1 1/2-cup size) and dust with the parmesan cheese.
  2. In a 3- to 4-quart pan, mix milk with polenta and 3/4 teaspoon salt; add 1/4 cup butter, cut into chunks. Stir over medium-high heat until mixture boils, then reduce heat to medium and stir until polenta is thick enough to hold a clean path for a few seconds when spoon is drawn across bottom of pan, 8 to 10 minutes; remove from heat.
  3. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, with a mixer on high speed, whip egg whites until they hold distinct, moist peaks.
  4. Stir baking powder into polenta, then add egg yolks and stir to mix well.
  5. Add about 1/4 of the egg whites and stir to mix. Fold polenta mixture into remaining egg whites. Spoon batter equally into souffl dishes. Set dishes slightly apart in a shallow 10- by 15-inch pan.
  6. Bake in 375 regular or convection oven until souffls are well browned, 30 to 40 minutes. Set each on a plate and mound lettuce leaves beside the dish. Spoon warm mushroom dressing equally onto lettuce. Spoon cambozola fondue equally over souffls and salads; sprinkle with chives.
  7. Add salt to taste.
