Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Oil 6 individual soufflé ramekins and sprinkle with sugar; Select.

Melt the chocolate pieces in the metal ball over barely simmering water, stirring constantly. (Even a small amount of hot chocolate will destroy the whole recipe). After the melted chocolate, then remove the Bowl from heat and stir in egg yolks.

In a separate bowl beat the egg whites with salt on medium speed until they are soft-glossy peaks. Furthermore, whites at high speed, gradually adding remaining 1/3 cup sugar until egg whites a stiff glossy peaks.

Carefully mix 1/3 white eggs in chocolate mixture, then carefully fold in the remaining egg whites. The chocolate mixture should be light and bubbly and even colour, without egg white stripes.
