Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Yield Makes about 1 1/2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cups blackberries or one of the following variations: 5 cups raspberries; 4 cups chopped strawberries; 2 1/2 cups blueberries; or 2 1/2 cups chopped pineapple
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
1 cup Simple Syrup with Flavoring Ideas
2 large egg whites

Steps:

  • Combine blackberries and 1/4 cup water in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Process until fruit is very smooth, and pour into a fine mesh sieve set in a deep bowl or a large glass measuring cup. Using a rubber spatula or a wooden spoon, gently press down on the mixture to extract as much liquid as possible. Don't press too hard, or some of the seeds may be forced through the strainer into the liquid. Discard any seeds or pulp that remain in the strainer. Set aside strained puree.
  • In a small bowl, stir 2 teaspoons gelatin into remaining 1/4 cup cold water; let stand until gelatin dissolves, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat simple syrup over medium heat just until it is warm to the touch, and remove from heat. Add gelatin mixture, and stir until it is dissolved; let cool. Transfer to a large bowl or plastic storage container, and add reserved fruit puree.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat 2 egg whites until stiff but not dry peaks form, and fold into fruit puree. Cover container, and place in refrigerator until it is well chilled before using, at least 1 hour.
  • Pour mixture into an ice-cream maker, and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer sherbet to a large airtight container; place in freezer at least 2 hours or overnight before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right citrus fruits: Use a variety of citrus fruits to create a complex and flavorful sherbet. Grapefruit, oranges, lemons, and limes are all good choices.
  • Get the most juice out of your citrus fruits: Use a citrus juicer to extract the maximum amount of juice from your fruits. If you don't have a citrus juicer, you can also use a regular juicer or a blender.
  • Strain the citrus juice: Strain the citrus juice through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any pulp or seeds.
  • Chill the citrus juice: Chill the citrus juice for at least 30 minutes before making the sherbet. This will help the sherbet to freeze more quickly and smoothly.
  • Use a good quality ice cream maker: An ice cream maker is essential for making sherbet. Make sure to use a good quality ice cream maker that is capable of freezing the sherbet quickly and evenly.
  • Churn the sherbet until it is thick and creamy: Churn the sherbet in the ice cream maker for at least 20 minutes, or until it is thick and creamy. Do not over-churn the sherbet, or it will become icy.
  • Transfer the sherbet to a freezer-safe container: Transfer the sherbet to a freezer-safe container and freeze it for at least 4 hours before serving.
