Goat cheese soufflé with thyme
6 servings
35 minutes
Goat cheese soufflé with thyme is a true embodiment of airy lightness and refined taste. Its roots trace back to Spanish cuisine, where goat cheese is highly valued for its rich texture and tangy aroma. Made with delicate cream and whipped egg whites, the soufflé gains airiness, while thyme adds a hint of spice that reveals depth of flavor. Baked to a golden crust, it offers an incredible combination of tenderness inside and a light crispy texture outside. The soufflé is perfect as an exquisite appetizer and can also be an elegant complement to wine or fresh salad. An important point is to serve it immediately after baking to enjoy its airy beauty fully.
