Emeril's grapefruit sorbet recipe has a surprising kick. The black pepper complements the sweetness, but it doesn't hit you right away. Instead, it lingers lightly at the back of the tongue.

Yield About 1 1/4 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/4 cups water
1 teaspoon grated grapefruit zest
2 cups freshly squeezed red-grapefruit juice
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine the sugar, water, and grapefruit zest in a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves. Remove the pan from the heat and set it aside to steep for 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the grapefruit juice and lemon juice. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Stir in the black pepper, and set it aside to cool. (It will cool faster if you set the container in a bowl of ice water and stir it intermittently.)
  • Cover and refrigerate the sorbet base until it is thoroughly chilled, about 4 hours or up to overnight.
  • Process the sorbet in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's directions. Transfer it to a freezerproof container, cover, and freeze until ready to serve.

This sorbet is a good basic recipe. I added some honey to sweeten it up a bit, and I also added some chopped mint leaves for a refreshing flavor. It turned out great!

I was disappointed with this sorbet. The grapefruit flavor was very weak, and the sorbet was not very creamy. I would not make this sorbet again.

This sorbet is a bit too tart for my taste, but I think it would be perfect for people who like tart desserts. The grapefruit flavor is very strong, so if you're not a fan of grapefruit, you might not like this sorbet.

This sorbet is the perfect dessert for a hot summer day. It's light and refreshing, and the tart grapefruit flavor is a nice change from the usual sweet desserts. I also like that this sorbet is made with all-natural ingredients.

I love the beautiful pink color of this sorbet. It's so inviting and refreshing. The flavor is also amazing. The grapefruit and lime flavors are perfectly balanced, and the sorbet is not too sweet or too tart.

This sorbet is a great way to use up leftover grapefruit. I had a few grapefruits that were starting to go bad, so I decided to make this sorbet. It turned out great! The sorbet was a hit with my family and friends.

I was pleasantly surprised by how easy this sorbet was to make. I didn't have an ice cream maker, so I just froze the mixture in a loaf pan and stirred it every few hours. It turned out perfect! The sorbet was smooth and creamy, and the grapefruit fl
