About the Little Mincemeat Soufflés

Asked on 19 Nov 2020 by SUPERGRAN

LITTLE MINCEMEAT SOUFFLE PUDDINGS. Delia's book advises you can freeze these puddings. My question is should they be frozen in their tins, or removed after cooking and freezing separately. Also should they be defrosted before reheating for 15 mins. I have frozen twice baked souffles before and frozen in ramekins, defrosted for 5 hours then reheated on greased paper. Would these be similar or not? Thank you in anticipation.

Hello,

You can do either. Yes, they are like twice baked souffles and your defrosting and heating suggestion will work for these.

If you freeze them unmoulded, I’d freeze them flat and then pop them in a container. Then unwrap and let them defrost on the baking tray before cooking for 15 minutes.

I’d also do 15 minutes if you’re heating them in their ramekins.

Kind regards

Lindsey
