INSTRUCTIONS
Separate the eggs, placing the yolks and whites in two medium-sized bowls. Cover both bowls and let the eggs come to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 350F/175C. Lightly butter the bottom and sides of a 9-inch (8-cup) souffle dish and dust it with sugar. Add 1/2 to 1/3 cup sugar, the flour, lemon zest, and salt to the yolks, and whisk for about 2 minutes until creamy and smooth. Pour in the yogurt and lemon juice, and whisk for a minute longer, or until uniform. Set aside. Beat the egg whites at high speed with an electric mixer until they form soft peaks. Sprinkle in the remaining 1/3 cup sugar and continue to beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Fold about half the egg whites into the lemon mixture, using a rubber spatula and a gentle turning motion to bring the lemom mixture up from the bottom of the bowl. (It doesn't need to be uniform.) Fold in the remaining eggs. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, and bake on the center rack of the oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until puffy on top, and just a little bit wobbly in the middle. Remove from the oven, and serve immediately. Yield: 4 to 6 servings ; prep time 45 to 50 minutes.

If you put it in the oven as you sit down to dinner, it will be ready in all its puffy splendor just at the right time. As with all souffles, Lemon Cloud collapses soon after it is baked, so if you want puffy splendor, serve it immediately. On the other hand, if you don't care about puffy splendor, serve this within an hour or two of baking, and it will taste just as wonderful. *Add the smaller amount of sugar if you like your desserts really tart. **Separate the eggs ahead of time, so thay can come to room temperature.
