Instructions
- In a saucepan, mix the milk with the flour until smooth and lump-free.
- Add the sugar and sieved orange pulp to the batter, then cook over low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens.
- Remove from the heat and let it cool slightly before incorporating the egg yolks one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites to stiff peaks with a pinch of salt to stabilize them.
- Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the orange mixture, being careful not to deflate them.
- Pour the mixture into a buttered or parchment-lined porcelain baking dish.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 20 minutes, without ever opening the door during cooking to prevent the soufflé from deflating.
- Serve immediately after cooking to enjoy its maximum fluffiness.
