CHEF'S CHOICE SORBET Recipe

Prepare the Fruit

Wash and chop the fresh fruit of your choice into small pieces. If using strawberries, remove the stems. If using lemons, ensure they are juiced and seeds are removed.

Make the Syrup

In a saucepan, combine the water and granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar completely dissolves. Remove from heat and let cool.

Blend the Mixture

In a blender, add the chopped fruit, lemon juice, and the cooled sugar syrup. Blend until smooth. Taste the mixture and add additional sugar if desired.

Chill the Mixture

Pour the blended fruit mixture into a shallow dish and cover it with plastic wrap. Place it in the freezer for about 2 hours, or until it starts to freeze around the edges.

Whip and Freeze

Using a fork, scrape the mixture to break up any ice crystals. Return to the freezer, repeating the process every 30 minutes until the sorbet is fully frozen and has a fluffy texture, which should take about 3-4 hours.

Serve the Sorbet

Once fully frozen, scoop the sorbet into serving bowls. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired and serve immediately.
