Flavor #16 - Raspberry Sorbet

I had not planned to make a Raspberry Sorbet for a while, but they were cheaper than I expected. A small container was only $2 and was just enough for a small batch.

1 Small Container of Raspberries

1 Cup of Simple Syrup

With fruits that have small seeds, like raspberries, I usually toss the fruit into a small sauce pan with a little extra sugar and a 1/4 cup of water over low heat to get the juice out of the fruit. After 20-30 minutes, remove the pan and strain the fruit so the juice is seedless. A small container should yield you about a cup of juice. Add the juice to the simple syrup and let it chill for a few hours before you put it in the machine.

One of the best parts of having several small batches of sorbet on hand is combining flavors. This Raspberry-Pineapple combo will be especially good on a warm New England day like today.

Enjoy!
