STRAWBERRY RHUBARB SORBET RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• In a sauce pan, add the rhubarb, orange juice, water and maple syrup. Bring to a boil. Then turn down and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb has turned to a mush (about 10 minutes). Once it is mushy, turn it off the heat and let it get back to room temperature. Once at room temperature, place the mixture in a container in the fridge for a few hours. Once cooled in the fridge, pour the mixture into a blender with the strawberries. Blend until smooth. Take a taste test. Mine came out a bit tart. I liked that, but if you prefer a more sweetened sorbet, you can add a few tablespoons of maple syrup or honey and blend for another 30 seconds. Pour the mixture into the ice cream machine. Mine took about 15 minutes to get to a soft serve consistency. If you like a harder sorbet, you can put it in the freezer for an hour before eating. Enjoy!
