SUPER-SIMPLE SORBET

This ridiculously easy recipe (that only requires a food processor and 5 minutes of your time) is another great recipe from Mark Bittman. Feel free to experiment. For example, one variation Bittman recommends is using frozen cherries and four ounces of melted, cooled bittersweet chocolate instead of sugar. Or you can mix fruits (like blueberries and peaches). If you have fresh fruit you want to use, just freeze it until hard, for about an hour. You may never buy sorbet again!

Time 5m

Yield 3 cups, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 lb frozen strawberries or 1 lb other frozen fruit
1/2 cup creme fraiche or 1/2 cup silken tofu
1/4 cup sugar (use more or less depending on sweetness of the fruit)

Steps:

  • Put all the ingredients in a food processor container along with a couple of tablespoons of water. Process until just puréed and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. If the fruit does not break down completely, add a little more water through the feed tube, a tablespoon or two at a time, being careful not to over-process or the sorbet will liquefy.
  • Serve immediately or freeze it for later. If serving later, allow 10 to 15 minutes for sorbet to soften at room temperature.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pound frozen strawberries or other fruit
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1/4 cup sugar, more or less (or use honey)

Steps:

  • Put all the ingredients in a food processor container along with a couple of tablespoons of water. Process until just pureed and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. If the fruit does not break down completely, add a little more water through the feed tube, a tablespoon at a time, being careful not to over-process or the sorbet will liquify. Serve immediately or freeze it for later. If serving later, allow 10 to 15 minutes for sorbet to soften at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fruit: Use ripe, flavorful fruit for the best sorbet. Avoid fruits that are too watery, as they will result in a icy sorbet.
  • Freeze the fruit: Freezing the fruit before making the sorbet helps to create a smooth, scoopable texture. It also helps to concentrate the flavors of the fruit.
  • Use a food processor or blender: A food processor or blender is the best way to puree the frozen fruit. Make sure to use a high-powered appliance that can handle the frozen fruit.
  • Add sugar or honey: Sugar or honey can be added to the sorbet to taste. However, it is important not to add too much, as this can make the sorbet too sweet.
  • Chill the sorbet before serving: Once the sorbet is made, it should be chilled for at least 2 hours before serving. This will help to firm up the sorbet and make it easier to scoop.

Conclusion:

Making sorbet at home is a fun and easy way to enjoy a delicious and refreshing treat. With just a few simple ingredients and a food processor or blender, you can create a variety of sorbet flavors to suit your taste. So next time you're looking for a sweet and healthy snack, reach for a bowl of homemade sorbet.
