Ingredients:
- 1 cup strawberries
- 1 cup raspberries
- 7 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tablespoon strained lemon juice
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Fruit:
- Start by hulling the strawberries, ensuring to save a dozen whole berries for garnish later.
- Proceed to liquidize or mash the strawberries and raspberries until smooth.
- Pass the mashed fruit mixture through a fine sieve to remove any pips or seeds, ensuring a smooth sorbet texture.
-
Sweeten and Mix:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat in the sugar gradually until fully dissolved, incorporating it into the mashed fruit mixture.
- Add the water and strained lemon juice to the sweetened fruit mixture, combining everything thoroughly until well incorporated.
-
Freeze:
- Transfer the prepared sorbet mixture into a suitable freezing container, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.
- Place the container in the freezer and allow it to freeze for approximately 40 minutes until partially set.
-
Beat and Freeze Again:
- After 40 minutes, remove the partially frozen sorbet from the freezer and beat it vigorously using either a “silver” or “wooden” spoon.
- This step helps break up any ice crystals and incorporates air into the sorbet, resulting in a lighter texture.
- Once beaten, return the sorbet to the freezer and allow it to freeze again for an additional 4 hours or until completely set.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- When ready to serve, scoop the sorbet into tall glasses or bowls, presenting it beautifully.
- Garnish each serving with the reserved whole berries, adding a touch of freshness and visual appeal.
- Enjoy this delightful Sorbet De Fraises Et De Framboises as a refreshing dessert on its own or paired with your favorite light cookies for a complete treat experience.
