What Is Sorbet?
Sorbet: A frozen dessert made from fruit juice or puree and sugar, with no dairy.
In the kitchen
Sorbet is churned or stirred while it freezes so the ice crystals stay small. The sugar keeps it soft enough to scoop, and too little makes it icy and hard.
Lemon sorbet is a classic palate cleanser between rich courses. It is refreshing and easy to make with just juice, zest, sugar and water.
