Twice-Baked Garlic SoufflésJonathan Buckley

Raynaudes is not far from the garlic capital of the southwest, at Lautrec, south of Albi. Lautrec garlic is a special variety, protected by an appellation d'origine contrôlée, with pink skin. It keeps well and the cloves are a good even size.

MAKE IT LOOK GREAT

I like to tuck a couple of cloves of garlic confit around each soufflé as it comes out of the oven. To make this, I poach skinned garlic cloves in olive oil to cover for 20 minutes till tender. The oil the garlic has been cooked in is useful for other dishes and dressings.
