FRESH ORANGE SHERBET



Fresh Orange Sherbet image

Unlike ice cream, store-bought sherbet is usually third-rate. If you want a really good fruit sherbet, do you have to make it yourself? YES! If using a canister-style ice cream machine, freeze the canister for at least 12 hours or, preferably, overnight. If the canister is not thoroughly frozen, the sherbet will not freeze beyond a slushy consistency. For the freshest, purest orange flavor, use freshly squeezed unpasteurized orange juice (either store-bought or juiced at home). Pasteurized fresh-squeezed juice makes an acceptable though noticeably less fresh-tasting sherbet. Do not use juice made from concentrate, which has a cooked and decidedly unfresh flavor. Vodka can be substituted for the Triple Sec, but I prefer the citrus flavor of the Triple Sec. Prep time includes juice chilling time. Adapted from Cook's Illustrated (America's Test Kitchen.

Time 3h50m

Yield 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon orange zest, grated (from 1 to 2 oranges)
1 cup granulated sugar (7 ounces)
1/8 teaspoon table salt
2 cups orange juice, preferably unpasteurized fresh-squeezed (see note)
3 tablespoons lemon juice (from 1 to 2 lemons)
2 teaspoons triple sec
2/3 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Process zest, sugar, and salt in food processor until damp, ten to fifteen 1-second pulses. With machine running, add orange juice and lemon juice in slow, steady stream; continue to process until sugar is fully dissolved, about 1 minute.
  • Strain mixture through nonreactive fine-mesh strainer into medium bowl; stir in Triple Sec, then cover with plastic wrap and chill in freezer until very cold, about 40 degrees, 30 to 60 minutes. (Alternatively, set bowl over larger bowl containing ice water.) Do not let mixture freeze.
  • When mixture is cold, using whisk, whip cream in medium bowl until soft peaks form. Whisking constantly, add juice mixture in steady stream, pouring against edge of bowl. Immediately start ice cream machine and add juice/cream mixture to canister; churn until sherbet has texture of soft-serve ice cream, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove canister from machine and transfer sherbet to storage container; press plastic wrap directly against surface of sherbet and freeze until firm, at least 3 hours. (Can be wrapped well in plastic wrap and frozen for up to one week.) To serve, let sherbet stand at room temperature until slightly softened and instant-read thermometer inserted into sherbet registers 12 to 15 degrees.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use frozen orange juice concentrate, but the flavor won't be as good.
  • Make sure your oranges are peeled and seeded before you blend them. This will help to prevent the sherbet from being too bitter.
  • Add sugar or honey to taste. The amount of sugar you add will depend on how sweet you like your sherbet.
  • Chill the sherbet for at least 2 hours before serving. This will help it to set and become firm.
  • Serve the sherbet immediately after it has been made. It will start to melt quickly, so it's best to enjoy it right away.

Conclusion:

Orange sherbet is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for a hot summer day. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are looking for a simple snack or a dessert to serve at a party, orange sherbet is sure to please. So next time you have some fresh oranges on hand, give this recipe a try!
