FROMAGE BLANC-LEMON GRASS SORBET
This recipe, adapted from the restaurant Vong in New York, strikes a surprising balance. The fromage blanc is tangy and blunt; the lemon grass rounds out the edges and showers it with a floral, herbal aroma that lingers in your mouth. It is 20 minutes of your time for a complex endnote to a meal.
