INSTRUCTIONS
Line the bottoms of six 2 1/4-cup ramekins with rounds of wax paper, butter
the wax paper, and dust the ramekins with walnuts, shaking out the excess.
In a small heavy saucepan melt the 1/2 stick butter over moderately-low
heat, stir in the flour, and cook the roux, stirring, for 3 minutes. Remove
the pan from the heat, add the milk, scalded, in a stream, whisking until
the mixture is thick and smooth, and simmer the mixture, whisking, for 3
minutes. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, let it cool for 5 minutes, and
whisk in the cheddar, the salt, the mustard, the yolks, and the chives,
whisking until the mixture is smooth. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat
the whites with a pinch of salt until they just hold stiff peaks, stir
one-fourth of them into the cheddar mixture, and fold in the remaining
whites gently but thoroughly. Spoon the mixture into the ramekins and bake
the souffles in the middle of a preheated 400 degree oven for 15 to 20
minutes, or until they are puffed and golden. Let the souffles cool (they
will fall). Run a sharp small knife around the edge of each ramekin, invert
the souffles into the palm of the hand, and remove the rounds of wax paper.
These souffles may be prepared 1 day in advance. This recipe yields 6
servings.
