Best Lemon Sorbet With Blackberry Sauce Recipes

HOW TO MAKE TRADITIONAL ITALIAN LEMON SORBET

Steps:

• Let's start preparing the lemons. Wash them very carefully then dry them. With the help of a peeler, remove the lemon peel, being careful NOT to remove the white, bitter part.
• Cut the lemons in half and squeeze them to collect the juice. If you have a juice extractor you can use it to have a more concentrated, tasty and slag-free juice.
• Place water, sugar and lemon zest in a saucepan. Cook over low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved completely. Turn off the fire and let it cool.
• If necessary filter the lemon juice with a colander then add the syrup without the lemon zest. Mix really well.
• Pour the mixture into a blender and blend everything for about 3 minutes. In this way the mixture will incorporate more air and the sorbet will be creamier.
• If you have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into the machine and start it. It will take about 40 minutes, depending on the model. After the necessary time, your creamy Italian Lemon Sorbet is ready!
• Pour the blended mixture into the previously frozen stainless steel container. Place in the freezer for about 4 hours. Every 30 minutes you have to break the frozen surface. So remove the sorbet from the freezer and mix using a hand whisk or a low speed electric whisk.

BLACKBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Combine blackberries, sugar, lemon juice, and salt in a saucepan. Toss to coat and let sit for 5 minutes.
• Bring berry mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until sauce has reduced and thickened slightly, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool slightly and serve warm, or refrigerate for later use. Mixture will thicken further as it cools.

LEMON SORBET WITH CHUNKY BOYSENBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine berries and sugar in heavy medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves and mixture is heated through. Transfer mixture to processor and blend using on/off turns to chunky puree. Cover and refrigerate until cold, about 2 hours. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
• Spoon sorbet into bowls. Spoon sauce over. Garnish with mint and serve.

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 WITH BLACKBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Place frozen berries in large bowl. Sprinkle sugar over berries; let stand until berries are just thawed but still cold, about 1 hour. Using fork, coarsely mash berries. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Spoon sorbet into dessert glasses. Top with blackberry sauce and serve.

BLACKBERRY AND LEMON SWIRL SORBET

Steps:

• In a saucepan, bring 1 cup sugar and 2 cups water to a boil. Let cool slightly then measure out 2 cups. Combine the 2 cups with the lemon juice and chill.
• Meanwhile in a saucepan, place the blackberries with 1 tablespoon of water and 3 tablespoons of sugar. Bring to a boil then turn the heat down to a simmer, stirring often to reduce to a thick puree. Strain, if desired and chill the puree.
• Spin the chilled sorbet mixture in your ice cream maker then place in a frozen bowl. Fold in the chilled blackberry puree lightly to swirl it. Freeze until ready to enjoy.

BLACKBERRY WITH RED WINE SORBET

Steps:

• Heat the sugar and water together in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; cook and stir until the sugar is dissolved completely, making a simple syrup. Set aside to cool.
• Puree the blackberries in a blender or food processor; strain through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any seeds or pulp. Whisk the strained blackberry juice, the cooled simple syrup, and the red wine together in a bowl; chill in refrigerator until cold.
• Freeze in the freezer canister of an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's directions
