Yield Makes 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup dry red wine
3/4 cup sugar
1 pound ripe Bartlett pears, peeled, cored, and cut into 1-inch pieces (2 cups)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Coarse salt

Steps:

In a small saucepan, bring wine, 1 1/4 cups water, and sugar to a boil over medium heat, stirring often, until sugar dissolves. Add pears; reduce heat, and simmer until tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
Stir in lemon juice and a pinch of salt; cool completely. Transfer to a shallow baking dish. Freeze until solid, about 6 hours (or overnight).
With a fork, break frozen mixture into large pieces. In 2 batches, puree in a food processor until completely smooth, 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Transfer to an airtight container; freeze until ready to serve (sorbet will be soft).
