PLUM SORBET WITH SLOE GIN.



Plum Sorbet With Sloe Gin. image

I made this last week and it was incredible. I never thought that I'd be able to make a sorbet but this was lovely. When I made it it was a bit grainy, like a granita, which I liked. However, if you have more experience making sorbets I'm sure you can get the texture that you like. I also added a shot of tuica, which is a Romanian plum brandy like slivovica. If you can find this then use it because it intensifies the plum taste. The cooking time is freezing time.

PLUM SORBET



Plum Sorbet image

For a colorful dessert, make three quarts, usingpurple, red, and green plums.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Yield Makes 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 1/4 pounds Kelsey, Freedom, or Santa Rosa plums (about 9)
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cognac
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Cut plums in half and remove pits. Cut halves into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Combine plums, 3/4 cup water, the sugar, and the salt in a 5-quart nonreactive saucepan. Cook over medium heat until plums break down, about30 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent plums from scorching.
  • Remove from heat and cool slightly. Puree mixture in a food processor and strain into a medium bowl set over an ice bath to chill. Stir in cognac and vinegar.
  • Freeze mixture in an ice-cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions.

Tips for Making Perfect Plum Sorbet:

  • Choose ripe, sweet plums: The quality of your plums will greatly impact the flavor of your sorbet. Choose plums that are ripe, sweet, and juicy. Avoid plums that are bruised or have brown spots.
  • Freeze the plums before blending: Freezing the plums before blending helps to create a smooth and creamy sorbet. Cut the plums into small pieces and freeze them for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  • Use a powerful blender: A powerful blender is essential for getting a smooth and creamy sorbet. If you don't have a powerful blender, you can try using a food processor, but the results may not be as good.
  • Add a little sugar or honey: Plums are naturally sweet, but you may want to add a little sugar or honey to your sorbet to taste. This will help to balance out the tartness of the plums and create a more enjoyable sorbet.
  • Serve immediately or freeze for later: Plum sorbet can be served immediately after blending, or you can freeze it for later. If you freeze the sorbet, let it thaw for about 15 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Plum sorbet is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for summer. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its sweet and tart flavor, plum sorbet is a great way to cool down on a hot day. So next time you are looking for a refreshing treat, give plum sorbet a try!
