Sour Cherry Sorbet

By: CJ Supporting Member (Click to learn more about Supporting Membership)
"When sour cherries are in season, this preparation really shows off their color and flavor. Do not omit the salt as it keeps the sorbet 'scoopable' instead of a solid block of ice. Preparation time does not include time for pitting cherries. I get mine in Door County, Wisconsin, already pitted."

Original Recipe Yield 6 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 3 cups pitted tart red cherries
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/3 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Place the cherries into the work bowl of a food processor, and process until pureed, about 1 minute. Add sugar, white wine, almond extract, and salt to the pureed cherries, and process again to mix well, about 30 seconds.
  2. Pour the mixture into a 6-cup freezer container with a flat bottom. Cover the sorbet, and freeze until partially frozen, 3 to 4 hours. Stir and scrape the frozen sorbet into the soft part of the sorbet to mix well; cover and freeze 2 to 3 more hours. Repeat stirring and scraping, cover again, and freeze overnight.
