Frozen Apricot SouffléRomulo Yanes

We like to use California apricots (sometimes labeled "Pacific") in this dessert. They tend to be a deeper orange, and they have a tang that's occasionally lacking in the Turkish or Mediterranean varieties.

Cooks' notes:

·The egg whites in this recipe may not be fully cooked.
·Soufflé, without dusting, can be frozen up to 2 days.
