Strawberry-Moscato Sorbet image

This sorbet is an easy, elegant finish to a summer dinner. A good sorbet should taste like an extraction of its main flavor, and nothing else. It should be gutsier than ice cream, and purer; there is no custard to compete with. But while sorbets are easy to make, they are also unforgiving, and require the best fruit you can find. For this recipe, you'll want to use the sweetest, ripest strawberries available, as the fruit's flavor is mostly the point here.
