Passion fruit souffle (Souffle de maracuyá)










Also known as grenadilla, passion fruit is a tropical fruit with intensely flavoured slightly sour, yellow juicy pulp.


I have to confess that I absolutely love passion fruit (aka maracuya) and in fact you can make desserts, tarts, ice cream, I had not made a soufle but the recipe enchanted me.
 Absolutely recommend.
I always use frozen maracuya if you do not have fresh maracuya. It freezes very well.
