Lemon Sorbet With Strawberry Sauce Recipes

LEMON SORBET WITH STRAWBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• In blender container or food processor bowl with metal blade, combine strawberries, sugar and liqueur; blend until smooth.
• To serve, scoop sorbet into individual dessert dishes. Spoon about 2 tablespoons sauce over each. If desired, garnish with additional fresh berries.

LEMON SORBET IN LEMON CUPS

Steps:

• Combine the water and 2 cups of the sugar in a small saucepot. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until the sugar is just dissolved. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.
• Set a strainer over a 2-cup liquid measure.
• Cut off the top quarter of 8 lemons, then cut a very thin slice from the bottom to make a flat base. Squeeze the juice from the lemon tops into the liquid measure; discard the tops and bottoms.
• Stand up a cut lemon and, using a paring knife, cut around the inner edge of the peel, so you cut the flesh away from the peel. Switch to a spoon and use the incision as a guide to scoop out all the flesh from the inside of the lemon, leaving behind a lemon "cup." Place the flesh in the strainer over the liquid measure and squeeze out all the juice. Repeat with the other 7 lemons. Freeze the lemon cups until ready to serve.
• Zest and juice the remaining 4 lemons; reserve 1 tablespoon zest for the topping. You'll need 2 cups of fresh lemon juice in all; if you have any excess, store it in the fridge or freezer for future use.
• Mix together the cooled simple syrup and the 2 cups lemon juice. Pour the mixture into an ice cream machine and freeze following the manufacturer's instructions. Remove the sorbet to an airtight container and hold in the freezer for at least 2 hours before serving.
• On a small plate, mix together the reserved lemon zest and the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Spread the mixture in an even layer and set aside for at least 30 minutes to dry out slightly.
• When ready to serve, scoop the sorbet into the frozen lemon cups and top with sugared lemon zest. Serve immediately.

LEMON SORBET

Steps:

• In a saucepan, stir together the diced lemon peel, 1 cup of water and sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, and allow to cool.
• In a pitcher or bowl, stir together the lemon syrup with peel, lemon juice and mineral water. Pour into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Garnish each serving with a twist of lemon peel.
• If you do not have an ice cream maker, you may freeze it in a tall canister. Freeze for 1 1/2 hours. Remove and stir with a whisk. Return to the freezer and stir about once every hour for about 4 hours. The more times you stir, the more air will be incorporated, resulting in a lighter finished product.

STRAWBERRY LEMON SORBET

Steps:

• Put the lemon pieces into a food processor or blender with the sugar and pulse-chop until the lemon and sugar have combined to a purée. Tip the mixture into a bowl.
• Purée the strawberries and add to the lemon mixture. Add about half the lemon juice, taste and add more if necessary - the flavour of the lemon should be intense but not overpower the strawberries.
• Pour into an ice-cream machine and churn until frozen or freeze in a suitable container. You may need to churn the mixture in batches according to the size of your ice-cream machine.
