LIMONCELLO LEMON SORBET (WITH OR WITHOUT MINT)



Limoncello Lemon Sorbet (With or Without Mint) image

This is the concoction I came up with when I couldn't find quite what I was looking for. It is absolutely foolproof. It's simple, sweet, and tart, with just enough limoncello liqueur. Serve with sprig of mint or fresh berries. Top with limoncello or vodka if desired.

MEYER LEMON SORBET



Meyer Lemon Sorbet image

If you're lucky enough to have your own small trees of Meyer lemons or a specialty market that stocks them in season, I highly recommend making a delicious, cooling summer sorbet from them! The Meyer is highly prized among chefs. It's slightly sweeter than a regular lemon.....a cross between a lemon and a tangerine. It's an incredible lemon.

MEYER LEMON SORBET



Meyer Lemon Sorbet image

There were quite a few things I missed about the Bay Area when I packed up my bags and moved to France. Burritos, bean-to-bar chocolates, and "centered" people were some of them. Okay, I didn't miss the centered people. But I was surprised at how much I missed Meyer lemons, which are sweeter and more perfumed than regular Eureka lemons. Their vibrant, deep yellow color makes other lemons pale in comparison. If you're lucky enough to know someone with a Meyer lemon tree, you're likely to be handed a large sack of them when the fruits are in season. Some greengrocers and specialty markets now carry them, too. Otherwise, you can use regular Eureka lemons in this recipe, but increase the sugar to 1 cup (200 g).

Yield makes about 1 quart (1 liter)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 1/2 cups (625 ml) water
3/4 cup (150 g) sugar
Grated zest of 1 Meyer lemon, preferably organic
1 cup (250 ml) freshly squeezed Meyer lemon juice
1/4 cup (60 ml) Champagne or other sparkling wine, or 2 tablespoons (30 ml) vodka

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, bring the water, sugar, and lemon zest to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Pour into a medium bowl and let cool to room temperature.
  • Stir in the lemon juice and Champagne, other sparkling wine, or vodka. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled.
  • Freeze in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • This sorbet will freeze quite hard because it contains an especially large amount of water, so it's best eaten shortly after it's frozen. Or, remove it from the freezer ahead of serving so that it's soft enough to scoop. You can omit the alcohol, but the sorbet will freeze up even harder.

MEYER LEMON-BASIL SORBET RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Meyer Lemon-Basil Sorbet Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 10

SIMPLE SYRUP:
2 cups water
2 cup white sugar (see note in directions)
1 cup basil leaves, packed
SORBET:
1 cup fresh Meyer** lemon juice (depending on size, 8 to 12 lemons)
2 tablespoons Meyer lemon zest
OPTIONAL:
2 tablespoon limoncello
Eureka lemons will work fine, too.

Steps:

  • Use only fresh basil, as dried is not going to work with this recipe. I used one cup of fresh basil leaves, washed. Set aside. Simple syrup: Bring water and sugar to a boil, then bring to a simmer until the sugar is completely dissolved, whisking often. NOTE: My suggestion is to add only 1-1/2 cups sugar if you prefer a bit more of a tart sorbet. The full 2-cups can be more on the sweet side. Remove the simple syrup from the heat, and add the basil leaves. Allow to steep for at least an hour. However, after making a few batches of this, I think that at least 2 hours is ideal. The longer you steep the basil in the simple syrup, the more the basil flavor will shine through. Strain the basil-simple syrup, cover and refrigerate until cold. (Can be done a day before). Zest the lemons until you have about 2 tablespoons. Juice the lemons until you have one cup. Note: I made a batch with only 3/4 cup of juice and was happy with it. If using an ice cream maker, pour the lemon juice into a spouted pitcher. Add the simple syrup and taste the mixture. This is where you can add more lemon juice, if you wish. Add the limoncello; turn on the ice cream maker and pour the mixture. Churn until frozen (approximately 20 minute), pour into an air-tight container and freeze. To serve, allow to soften at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Tip: I like to cut off the bottom of each lemon, so that they stand upright. Scoop out the pulp, after squeezing the lemon juice, and freeze in a Zip-loc bag. These make cute serving containers.
