Tangerine Sherbet image

This sherbet reminds me of long-ago Creamsicles and Orange Juliuses at the mall, but it has a bright juiciness I don't remember from my childhood.

Categories     ice creams and sorbets, dessert

Time 3h15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 teaspoon gelatin
2 1/4 pounds tangerines
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup heavy cream, chilled

Steps:

  • Freeze the canister of an ice-cream maker overnight.
  • Drop the gelatin and about 2 tablespoons of water into a small saucepan and turn your back on it. Strip the zest from two tangerines with a Microplane, a zester or, if you aren't that kind of person, a regular potato peeler. Toss the zest into a bowl (if you used a potato peeler, give it a rough chop first) and squeeze the tangerines, even the naked ones, removing any seeds, to make 1 1/2 cups of juice.
  • Remembering the saucepan, put a little heat under it until the gelatin starts to look smooth, not grainy. Then stir in the sugar, salt, juice and zest and turn up the heat, letting it come to something like the temperature of your finger. Stir to make sure the sugar is dissolved, then chill it in the refrigerator. When it is cold, strain out the zest and toss the juice into the tank of your ice-cream maker along with the cream, which should be cold, too. Do whatever you usually do with your ice-cream maker until you have a creamy sherbet. With luck, you will have an extra hour to chill the sherbet before serving it. Tiny spoons will make it last longer, but not much longer. You might think about making twice as much.

This sherbet is a great way to use up leftover tangerines. I always have a few extra tangerines after making a fruit salad, and this is a great way to use them up.

I love that this sherbet is made with real fruit. It makes it so much more flavorful than store-bought sherbet.
