Recipe for soufflé "Bird's milk" with agar-agar at home

Time for preparing- 1 hour.
Servings – 12-14.
Calories per serving- 350-500 kcal.
Inventory: large bowl, high-sided saucepan, mixer for beating liquids, silicone brush, mold, parchment.

Ingredients

Step by step cooking

  1. Soak agar-agar (8 g) in 140 ml of water for 2 hours.

  2. For a soufflé, you need 200 g of proteins. Pour the egg whites into a large bowl, chilled beforehand.

  3. Cover the form with parchment. Pour the cream (300 g) into a mixer bowl and start whisking at the lowest speed. Increase the speed gradually until the cream turns into firm peaks.

  4. Put a saucepan with soaked agar-agar on the smallest heat and heat with constant stirring.

  5. When the liquid becomes cloudy and glue-like, add 300 g of sugar.

  6. Stir the mixture constantly in a saucepan and at the same time remove the remaining sugar from the walls. This is easy to do: moisten a silicone brush in water and walk along the sides of the pan. This way the sugar won't burn. The sugar must completely dissolve before the mixture boils in the saucepan.

    Be careful, the mixture begins to actively foam once after boiling. It is necessary to boil the mixture until it becomes the consistency of liquid honey.



  7. Simultaneously with boiling the agar-agar, beat the whites of 5-6 eggs. We begin to beat at the lowest speed, add a pinch of salt and, when the proteins begin to foam, switch the mixer to maximum speed. Add a pinch of citric acid and beat until firm peaks. Switch the mixer to the lowest speed and pour in the agar-agar mixture in a thin stream.

  8. Then add whipped cream and turn off.

  9. The soufflé is ready. You can pour it into a mold. Leave the form until it hardens completely. Cut into portions.

You can prepare the "Bird's Milk" dessert according to the recipe

  • Expired gelatin does not freeze... Therefore, carefully check the expiration date on the packaging.
  • The warm mixture under the film forms condensation as it cools. Therefore, many housewives do not cover the form with a film at all, but put the container on the top shelf of the refrigerator. There is one more trick: you do not need to stretch the film, but simply lay it on top of the soufflé. After complete solidification, the film easily peels off the surface of the dessert.
  • Eggs should only be fresh, otherwise the soufflé will have a pronounced egg smell.
  • So that there are no unaesthetic voids in the finished dessert, the mixture must be laid out in a mold in several stages. First lay out half, distribute and lightly tap the mold on the table. Transfer the rest of the mixture. Smooth again and knock with the shape on the table.

Did you know? You can prepare vanilla extract yourself. This will require 100 g of strong alcohol (vodka, brandy, cognac), 4 vanilla pods and a small container with a tight lid. Cut the pods to length and place in a container. Pour everything over with alcohol, close and let it brew for 14 days in a cool place. The homemade extract is stored for up to 5 years, but the smell is clearly superior to the purchased ones.

How to serve

Of course, everyone will like soufflé even without additional decor. But it can easily be turned into a real masterpiece of culinary art, if you tinker with decoration a little. Here are some tips on how to make the Bird's Milk soufflé an exquisite holiday dessert:

  • Prepare and decorate the cakes with snow-white drops. Dark icing and meringues look great in contrast. And you don't have to worry about calories - whipped proteins are low in calories.
  • Use finely grated orange or lemon zest to decorate the Bird's Milk New Year's dessert. Oh, something, but there are enough bright crusts in winter.
  • Frozen berries will not only act as a decoration, but will also add a slight sourness to a sweet delicacy.
  • It is not difficult to prepare, but a dessert with such a decoration will immediately become a restaurant dish.

The fashionable form of serving soufflé today is with a sweet sauce: chocolate, vanilla, nut, berry ... You can endlessly experiment on this topic. Dessert is laid out on a large flat plate. The liquid sauce is spread around the dessert. Top it can be decorated with grated chocolate, caramelized nuts or. The masters apply intricate designs with thick sauce. You can combine several types of sauces in a contrasting color and taste.

The history of the “bird's milk” confectionery masterpiece began in France, from where the recipe for this airy confectionery later migrated to Poland. The famous Polish confectioner Jan Wedel (firm "E. Wedel") worked on it creatively, improved the recipe and came up with his own name "Bird's milk" (in Polish - ptasie mleczko). Allegedly, this name was chosen under the influence of the comedy of Aristophanes "Birds", where one dreams of happiness, like the milk "not of cows, but of birds." As a result of Wedel's work in Poland, the Bird's Milk souffle made from beaten eggs stuffed with marshmallows (a kind of marshmallow) gained popularity.

In the USSR, the idea to produce at the country's confectionery factories an analogue of the Polish "Bird's Milk" sweets was brought by the Minister of Food Industry Vasily Petrovich Zotov. Returning from Czechoslovakia in 1967, where he first tasted the Bird's Milk soufflé, the minister gathered representatives of all the confectionery factories of the Soviet Union at the Rot Front Moscow confectionery factory, and gave the task to create the same sweets, although the recipe itself was not known in the USSR.

Soviet confectioners began a competition to create the best recipe for this delicious soufflé, and after a while the production of these sweets was mastered and even creatively expanded to cakes from "Bird's Milk". The best results were shown by the Vladivostok Confectionery Factory, having adjusted the production of these sweets up to 35 tons per month, although similar sweets were also produced by other Soviet confectionery industries, for example, Rot Front.

It is curious that the Sakhalin Confectionery and Macaroni Plant at that time produced Bird Milk sweets using natural agar-agar (Agar is a vegetable substitute for gelatin).

Today, you can buy Bird's Milk sweets in any grocery section of almost every grocery store. And we will tell the lovers of sweets how to make "Bird's Milk" at home.

    1. 2 teaspoons agar agar (soak using 150 ml water).
    2. 50 g icing sugar.
    3. 140 g of wheat flour.
    4. 300 g butter.
    5. 100 g of condensed milk.
    6. 450 g of sugar.
    7. 3 eggs (you need 1 whole and 2 squirrels).
    8. 1/3 of a teaspoon of citric acid.
    9. 100 g of chocolate.
    10. Vanillin.
  • Beat 50 grams of butter with a mixer, adding powdered sugar and vanillin.
  • Add 1 egg to the resulting mass and beat everything thoroughly again.

  • Pour flour and stir so that there are no lumps. The dough should be thick.
  • It is advisable to cover the baking dish with parchment paper and lay out the dough in a thin layer. In the oven, the temperature should be 200-210 degrees. Bake for 10 minutes.

  • Trim the baked hot cake, leveling the edges.
  • Beat condensed milk well with 200 grams of butter.

  • Agar-agar, which has been soaked in water, put on low heat and stir until boiling. Add sugar and mix thoroughly again until sugar crystals dissolve (3-7 minutes). When white foam appears, check readiness - if threads are drawn from the syrup after the spoon, then it's time to turn it off.
  • In a large bowl, beat 2 egg whites until frothy with citric acid. Then gently add hot agar-agar syrup in a thin stream. Beat thoroughly again. The mass will increase greatly.

  • Add butter cream with condensed milk to the resulting mass. Mix. The contents will become thinner and more yellowish in color.
  • The resulting mass is quickly poured into a mold on the surface of the cake, since agar-agar has time to solidify even at a temperature of 40 degrees. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes.

  • Melt chocolate and 40-45 g of butter, heating in a water bath or in the microwave.
  • Pour an even layer over the hardened surface of the cake and put in the cold for another 15 minutes.

Cut the cake into small portions in the form of cakes, if desired, apply a pattern with cream on top of the glaze.
