Tangerine Sorbet Recipe


   
Recipe Categories: Dessert Recipes   |   Radio Kitchen
Yield: about 1 quart
From "Sweet Sicily" (Regan Books/Harper Collins) by Victoria Granof
 
Ingredients
  1  cup sugar  
  1  cup water  
    grated zest of 4 tangerines  
  3  cups tangerine juice -- (the juice of 6-8 tangerines)  
    juice of one lemon  
 
Instructions
 
  1. In a medium saucepan, stir together the sugar, water, and zest and bring to a boil, stirring constantly until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.

 
  2. Strain the sugar syrup to remove the zest. Add the citrus juices and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

 
  3. Freeze in an ice cream freezer according to the manufacturer's directions.

 
  Vicotria writes: "Nothing can come close to the tanscendent tangerine sorbetto made by Corrado Contanzo in Noto. With this recipe, I don't presume to duplicate his magic -- you would need Sicilian tangerines, Sicilian water, Sicilian sun, and the passion of the maestro himself -- but give it a try and let yourself dream."
