I'm an adventuous home cook. Motto = Nothing tried is nothing ventured. () Tip from a fave restaurant of mine in Sydney - Banjo Patteson Cottage. (www.banjopatterson.com) They do an amazing souffle with vanilla bean. After preparation and dusting top run a PERFECTLY CLEAN finger dipped in iced cold water around the rim to creat a small "edge". Do this in three efforts of 1/3rd each ensuring you clean finger perfectly. The souffle will rise upwards evenly. Your souffle recipe looks and sounds delicious.

The only thing is, I don't think you mentioned what temperature the oven should be set to, nor what it should be lowered to! I like this recipe, it seems do-able and really yum!

You need to show them who is boss. The only example of a food that defies this is macarons, they're just temperamental! :P I think some food smells fear quite honestly.

I'm scared of many things, but I'm not scared to try anything in the kitchen. When I started baking last year, I just tried any and everything I wanted. I still do this. In fact, my first blog entry was a danish with homemade yeast-based, laminated dough. I just though I'd make it because it seemed fun. I think I don't have a kitchen phobia because I see baking as a distraction from the reality of life. So, no matter how complicated or seemingly daunting the task, I'm willing to do it just to get away from the things I really am afraid of.....hmmm...wow. I've never thought about this deeply. Nevertheless, outside of the kitchen, I'm afraid of many things. Thanks for what turned out to be such a thought-provoking question. It’s funny.
