Sorbet Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Make the Sorbet Base

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

2. 2

   Add Lemon Juice and Salt

   Once the sugar mixture has cooled, add the lemon juice and salt. Stir well to combine.

3. 3

   Prepare the Fruit

   Choose your seasonal fruit and purée it in a blender until smooth. If using strawberries, hull them first; for mangoes, peel and chop; for peaches, pit and slice.

4. 4

   Combine Fruit with Sorbet Base

   Mix the fruit purée with the sorbet base until well blended.

5. 5

   Chill the Mixture

   Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until it’s thoroughly chilled.

6. 6

   Freeze the Sorbet

   Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and freeze, stirring every 30 minutes until it reaches a sorbet consistency.

7. 7

   Serve

   Once the sorbet is fully frozen and has a smooth texture, scoop and serve in bowls or cones.
