- Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt. Once they have almost stiffened up, add the teaspoon of lemon juice and gently combine with the warm béchamel.
- Taste and add more salt if necessary and pour into the moulds, not completely filled, leaving 3 – 5 mm.
- Cook for 7 – 8 minutes at 200°C.
- In the meantime, warm the chanterelles and add the chopped tarragon.
- Take the soufflés out, make a hole on top and garnish with the meat jus and chanterelles in front of the guests.
