Cooking steps

1. Separate the yolks from the whites. Mix the yolks, 50 grams of sugar, starch, and flour with a whisk until smooth.

   Required ingredients:

   • Egg yolk: 50 g
   • Sugar: 150 g
   • Starch: 8 g
   • Wheat flour: 15 g

2. Add zest to the milk, bring to a boil in a saucepan, pour into the egg mixture. Mix and pour back into the saucepan where the milk was prepared. Keep on the heat for one and a half minutes, continuously whisking: the consistency should resemble a custard, similar to condensed milk.

   Required ingredients:

   • Milk: 250 ml
   • Oranges: 0.3 piece

3. Weigh 200 grams of cream on a scale. Mix with egg whites using a mixer or blender, and when the cream starts to turn into foam, gradually add 100 grams of sugar, continuing to mix.

   Required ingredients:

   • Egg white: 200 g
   • Sugar: 150 g

4. Pour the liqueur into the remaining milk mixture and stir. Combine in a large bowl with what has been mixed with a mixer.

   Required ingredients:

   • Grand Marnier liqueur: 100 ml

5. Fill the small molds with the mixture to the edges. Smooth the soufflé with a wide knife from the center to the edges, removing the excess. Create a groove along the edge of each mold with your thumb in the soufflé to ensure it rises beautifully without drooping. Place the soufflé in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for fifteen to twenty minutes. Sprinkle the finished soufflé with powdered sugar and serve.
