Cranberry Orange Sorbet Recipe justeatfood
- 4 cups cranberries washed, and picked over
- 1 orange juiced yielded about a 1/2 cup
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar
- The night before the big freeze I put the freezer bowl in the freezer, and the airtight dish that was going to house this glorious stuff when all was said and done.
- In a food processor add whole cranberries and orange juice.
- Combine until pureed and smooth.
- Now comes the tedious part.
- Strain the cranberry orange sauce into a small bowl with a lip, discard the pulp.
- Continue this process until all juice is extracted.
- This process yielded just over 1 cup for me, and my husband/ sous chef.
- Place juice in airtight container and store at least 8 hours in refrigerator to chill completely.
- For the simple syrup add the water and sugar to a small sauce pan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Stir occasionally, and cook until sugar is completely dissolved, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and place in an ice bath until chilled.
- Place in an air tight container, and put in refrigerator for the next day.
- Day 2 set up ice cream maker according to manufacturer directions, turn on and add cranberry juice and 1 1/4 cup simple syrup.
- Mix for about 11 minutes or until desired consistency has been reached.
- Place immediately in chilled storage bowl.
- Wait at least 2 hours for flavors to combine before serving.
- Use any leftover simple syrup for mixed drinks.
- Well?...you have to use it up right?
- Waste not, want not?
- OK, do whatever you want with the stuff.
