King’s Beaufort soufflé

Many bistros serve fantastic soufflés, bursting and rising out of their pots, using a variety of strong-tasting, local cheeses. However, I call this recipe ‘the King’s soufflé’ because, of all the hard mountain cheeses, Beaufort is, quite simply, the best. It has a rich, dense, fruity and lightly nutty flavour, which makes a beautifully tasty soufflé. Serve with a crisp green salad.
