STRAWBERRY RHUBARB SORBET RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Strawberry Rhubarb Sorbet Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by SpartyGreenMom

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 to 3 large stalks rhubarb
1 (16-ounce) package strawberries
1/4 cup maple syrup
Juice of 1/2 an orange
1 cup water

Steps:

  • In a sauce pan, add the rhubarb, orange juice, water and maple syrup. Bring to a boil. Then turn down and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb has turned to a mush (about 10 minutes). Once it is mushy, turn it off the heat and let it get back to room temperature. Once at room temperature, place the mixture in a container in the fridge for a few hours. Once cooled in the fridge, pour the mixture into a blender with the strawberries. Blend until smooth. Take a taste test. Mine came out a bit tart. I liked that, but if you prefer a more sweetened sorbet, you can add a few tablespoons of maple syrup or honey and blend for another 30 seconds. Pour the mixture into the ice cream machine. Mine took about 15 minutes to get to a soft serve consistency. If you like a harder sorbet, you can put it in the freezer for an hour before eating. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, ripe rhubarb: The quality of your rhubarb will greatly impact the flavor of your sorbet. Look for stalks that are firm and brightly colored, with no signs of wilting or bruising.
  • Wash and trim the rhubarb: Rinse the rhubarb stalks under cold water, then trim off the leaves and any tough ends.
  • Cut the rhubarb into small pieces: This will help it cook evenly and release its flavor more easily.
  • Sweeten the rhubarb: You can use sugar, honey, or another sweetener to taste. If you're using sugar, be sure to dissolve it completely in the water before adding the rhubarb.
  • Cook the rhubarb: Bring the rhubarb and sweetener to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb is soft and breaks down easily. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
  • Cool the rhubarb: Let the rhubarb mixture cool completely before churning it into sorbet.
  • Churn the sorbet: Follow the instructions for your ice cream maker to churn the rhubarb mixture into sorbet. This will usually take about 20-30 minutes.
  • Freeze the sorbet: Once the sorbet is churned, transfer it to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.

Conclusion:

Rhubarb sorbet is a delicious and refreshing dessert that's perfect for a hot summer day. It's also a great way to use up fresh rhubarb from your garden. With its tart and tangy flavor, rhubarb sorbet is a unique and flavorful treat that's sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a refreshing and delicious dessert, give rhubarb sorbet a try!
