Use figs in season at their ripest. It is recommended to make the sugar syrup a day ahead to allow plenty of time to chill. Untried by me.

- Place the figs in the bowl of a food processor; puree.
- Add the puree to the chilled syrup; stir in the lime juice.
- Taste, and add more juice if desired.
- Freeze sorbet in an ice-cream maker following the manufacturer's directions until the mixture begins to freeze.
- Then scoop mixture into a storage container, seal tightly, and freeze for several hours or overnight.
- **Black Mission figs give the sorbet a ruby color, speckled with black if the figs are unpeeled; Green figs will result in pale pink color speckled with green if left unpeeled.

[email protected]This sorbet was a bit too tart for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The fig flavor was very prominent, and the lime added a nice brightness. I think next time I'll add a little more sugar to balance out the tartness.
