3 ounces sharp white Cheddar cheese, shredded

sugar and continue to cook until apples are soft and slightly caramelized, about 5

5. Whisk egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until they hold soft, fluffy peaks, about 2
minutes. Gently fold half the beaten egg whites into the souffle batter. Repeat with
remaining whites to make a soft, airy batter. Fold in cooled apple mixture. Divide
mixture into prepared ramekins.
6. Bake in the preheated oven until souffles have risen and tops are browned, about 22
minutes. Souffles will fall slightly as they cool. Serve warm.
Footnotes
Cook's Note:
You should have about 2 cups of batter. You can divide each 1/2 cup portion into
whatever sized ramekin you have, but a 4 3/4- to 5-ounce size is ideal. Basically,
when it's fully puffed and browned, it's done. And for goodness sake, serve very
warm, but not piping hot!

Finely grated cheese, rather than shredded, creates a more desirable texture in
homemade pesto.
Arugula can be found in either plastic bags or small plastic rectangular containers
