Sherbet
- 3/4 cup crushed fruit
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp unflavored gelatin
- 2 Tbsp cold water
- 1/4 cup boiling water
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- Mix first three ingredients and let stand until syrup forms.
- Soften the gelatin in the cold water, then dissolve into boiling water. Add gelatin to fruit mixture, stirring slowly.
- Freeze 1 hour either in freezer-safe dish or trays (I just stuck the mixing bowl in the freezer for an hour).
- Remove partially frozen mixture from freezer and put in a chilled bowl (see, if you use your original bowl, it's already chilled! *And* you don't have to dirty another dish! :) )
- Whip cream until stiff. Beat fruit mixture until creamy and frothy then fold in the whipped cream.
- Return to freezer tray (again, I just used the same Pyrex mixing bowl).
- Freeze until firm, stirring occasionally (3-4 hours).
- Tip: I always doubled or quadrupled this to make lots. 1 quart doesn't go far for 5 people.
