If you don鈥檛 have an ice cream machine, this sorbet can be made by regularly whisking the frozen sorbet every 40 minutes, or so, until it has completely frozen. The machine will make your life far easier though!

Preparation

The best sorbets have a soft, melt-in-the-mouth texture that comes from tiny ice crystals. The tiny crystals are achieved by the getting just the right balance of sugar syrup to fruit juice or fruit pur茅e and then constantly churning the mixture as it freezes. Fruit pulp, such as raspberry or blackcurrant pur茅e, enhances this softness, as does alcohol, which inhibits freezing. Allow about two tablespoons of alcohol to 565ml/1 pint of liquid sorbet for a soft-set style.

You don't need an ice cream maker to make sorbet, but the texture of the finished sorbet will not be as smooth without one. If you don't have one, mix the sorbet regularly with a fork as it freezes, or process it in a food processor once frozen. Many recipes suggest beating in one tablespoon of egg white to 565ml/1 pint of partially frozen sorbet to improve the texture of an unchurned sorbet, but this adds an unnecessary health risk (egg white may contain salmonella).
