Recipe: Cherry Souffle

Title: Cherry Souffl�
Categories: Desserts
Yield: 6 servings

3/4 c Cherry pur‚e 1 Pinch of salt
1 tb Fresh lemon juice Sugar to taste
3 Egg whites

Pit and pur‚e enough sour cherries to make 3/4 cup. (My guess is that
something over 1 cup whole cherries will be required.) Preheat the oven to
375øF. Oil a 1-quart souffl‚ dish and sprinkle it with sugar. Heat the
cherry pur‚e in a small pan. Add the lemon juice, salt, and sugar to
taste, and stir to blend; remove from the heat. Beat the egg whites until
stiff but not dry and stir them into the hot pur‚e until evenly blended.
Spoon into the souffl‚ dish and bake for 20-25 minutes.
