   • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
   • Butter six 3/4-cup ramekins and dust them with sugar.

2. Make Lemon Mixture:

   • In a heavy medium saucepan over medium-low heat, melt 1/2 cup of butter.
   • Add 3/4 cup of sugar and stir until the mixture is opaque, which takes about 2 minutes.
   • Stir in the fresh lemon juice and lemon zest.
   • Whisk in the egg yolks.
   • Cook the mixture over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until it thickens and a thermometer registers 180°F (82°C), which usually takes about 12 minutes. Be careful not to let it boil.
   • Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and let it cool to room temperature, approximately 30 minutes.

3. Prepare Egg Whites:

   • Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites in another large bowl until stiff peaks form but they are not dry.

4. Combine Mixtures:

   • Fold 1/4 of the beaten egg whites into the lemon mixture to lighten it.
   • Carefully fold in the remaining beaten egg whites until just combined.

5. Bake:

   • Divide the souffle mixture evenly among the prepared ramekins.
   • Place the filled ramekins in a large roasting pan.
   • Fill the pan with enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
   • Bake the souffles until they are golden brown on top, approximately 14 minutes.

6. Serve:

   • Using tongs for assistance, remove the souffles from the water bath and serve immediately.

Tips:

• Make sure the egg whites are beaten to stiff peaks but not overbeaten, as this can affect the texture of the souffles.
• When folding the egg whites into the lemon mixture, do it gently to avoid deflating the mixture.
• Serve the souffles immediately after baking for the best texture and presentation.
