| 1. For the Spinach mixture:. | 2. If using fresh spinach, steam for 3-5 minutes in a large saucepan; drain and chop. If using frozen, thaw and press out excess moisture. | 3. Spread chopped spinach in a buttered 6-cup casserole that is at least 2 3/4 in deep. | 4. Scatter the chopped hard-boiled eggs on top if using. Set aside. | 5. Preheat oven to 375. | 6. For the souffle topping:. | 7. Melt the butter in a small heavy saucepan over moderate heat, blend in the flour, then add the milk and cook about 3 minutes, stirring constantly till thickened and smooth. | 8. Add the cheese, salt, pepper, sugar and nutmeg and cook, stirring constantly, just till the sauce bubbles up and cheese melts. | 9. Remove the sauce from heat and cool 15 minutes, whisking often to prevent a skin from forming on the surface. Blend in the egg yolks. | 10. Beat the egg whites till stiff. Stir a heaping tablespoon of them into the sauce to lighten it, then fold in the balance gently but thoroughly. | 11. Pour the souffle mixture into the casserole on top of the spinach and bake, uncovered, for 35-40 minutes, till puffed and lightly browned. | 12. Serve at once before the souffle topping begins to deflate. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
