Strawberry season is here and they are available in markets or at u-pick farms. The starwberry flavor is so refreshing to the pallet and you just want more.
Ingredients
2 C sugar
2 C water
2 pounds of fresh strawberries
Directions
Cuisinart Yogurt/Ice Cream Machine and Cuisinart 7 or 12 cup food processor. Place Yogurt bowl in freezer 24 hours before making sorbet.
Simple Syrup
In small pan add water and sugar. Do not stir. Bring to boil and then simmer for 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and cool. This maybe made ahead of time and refrigerated.
Making Sorbet
Wash, destem, and halve the strawberries.
Add the strawberries to the food processor and puree until smooth.
Add 1 1/2 cups of simple syrup and pulse until combined. Pour into large covered bowl and place into freezer for two to three hours.
Assemble yogurt/ice cream maker and pour strawberry mixture into machine and churn for 15-20 minutes or until stiff.
Remove from maker and serve or place in covered container and freeze until further use.
NOTE:
We use fresh organic strawberries. I have not made sorbet with frozen fruit.
Thanks for sharing this refreshing dessert – I need to make it because it is so hot here in Zagreb and the summer is just starting 😀
