Cooks' notes:

·To take the temperature of a shallow amount of syrup, put bulb of thermometer in skillet and turn thermometer facedown, resting other end against rim of pan. Check temperature frequently. ·Soufflés can be frozen up to 1 day. ·The egg whites in this recipe will not be fully cooked, which may be of concern if there is a problem with salmonella in your area. You can substitute reconstituted powdered egg whites.
