Along with strawberries and sugar, this simple dessert is incredibly refreshing, easily adaptable, and is an ideal summer treat. GET THE RECIPE ►► f52.co/3Adplg3

      Taking some Off-Script vibes, I see. I would say... Watermelon Lemonade Sorbet, served with some fresh mint.

      So... I liked the idea of the all lemon sorbet, but instead of only lemon, I used some limes instead, plus half a lemon because the pith of the lime is so thin. Since it is no longer strawberry season (despite my having some in the freezer), I decided to try throwing in some frozen, well ripe (but not rotten) bananas. I also threw in a small amount of mint leaves, added a dash of salt, and cut the sugar to only 1 cup. What did I get? A very delicious mostly lime sorbet with a hint of banana and lemon (I didn't add enough mint leaves to taste them, unfortunately).

    One more thing 😂: I have an old food processor whose blade is too dull to use for chopping anymore. So I use it to make ice cream and sorbet.
    I make the ice cream base in it, then stick it in the freezer (not the base and motor of course!) Then I take it out every twenty minutes or so to quickly scrape the frozen bits clinging to the inside of the bowl and pulse the contents to break up any ice crystals. I repeat until soft serve consistency, then I pour everything out into a container to let it harden up the freezer. Works every time!

      Did you know that you can sharpen your food processor blades using a regular knife sharpener? I do it ALL the time! (But... I have an ice cream machine, so...)

    • @mominetti
      @mominetti 3 года назад

      @Jean-François Daignault Yeah, I would sharpen the blades (Martha Stewart always says to keep your food processor blades sharp). You can still use it as an “ice crystals braker”. 😉

I'm serious, I will pay you for them. Shadodragonette@yahoo.com That has been my email since 1998 so this is NOT a joke. Email your price, you can totally make a new email address for this just put in the subject "Blackberries". Don't forget to figure in the cost of shipping, I don't want you to feel robbed later.

    Re. hulling strawberries: in a recipe like this one where the strawberries are puréed in the processor and where the final texture is meant to be on the rough side, I pluck the leaves off using only my fingers. I’ll try and pull out the tiny stem with my nail at the same time, but honestly if it clings to the fruit I don’t fret about it. It will very probably disintegrate in the process of making this kind of recipe. Same thing when making jam or pies or crumbles. The stem just melts away in the cooking process.
    If I’m going to serve the fruit whole (or in big chunks) and raw, then I do exactly what Kristen does.
    But honestly if it’s just me I don’t even bother 😂 I use the leaves as a little handle to hold the strawberry as I eat it. I hardly notice the bit of stem that sometimes hangs on to the strawberry.
    Awesome recipe! Can’t wait to try it!!

    Before I got a condenser ice cream machine, I used to use a high-powered stick blender to ensure my ice creams and sorbets stayed smooth, I found that I needed to stir it less often during the freezing process that way.

    • @mandytuthill7156
      @mandytuthill7156 3 года назад +7

      I wonder if you could put some basil in the sugar (like you would a vanilla bean) to infuse for some time before, then take out the basil before adding to the food processor.

    • @shuchinsk
      @shuchinsk 3 года назад +3

      I love that basil sugar idea! You could also add the basil when the ice cream machine has nearly finished its work so it gets distributed evenly, like how you add chocolate chips or other inclusions. Either way, 😋.

    • @TheNinnyfee

    Oh, by the way... although I like the orange flavor, I don't eat oranges (long story). But when someone in my house eats an orange, I spend ages scraping out the pith and just eating that. Seriously... I adore it! I'm betting this would also be fantastic with an orange all by itself (and maybe... a dash of rosemary, maybe)!

    The flavour was really good, but I found the tiny pieces of lemon rind unpleasant. I thawed and strained it through a fine mesh sieve, and froze it again. So much better! I also added a tbsp of St-Germain liqueur to help keep it scoopable.
