Fresh Lemon Sherbet Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir cream and sugar until sugar is dissolved. Stir in lemon juice and zest (mixture will thicken slightly). Cover and freeze until firm, about 8 hours or overnight. Remove from the freezer 10 minutes before serving. Spoon into lemon boats or dessert dishes.

Steps:

• Combine in a medium-size saucepan: 1 cup fresh lemon juice, 2 cups water, 1 1/4 cups sugar.
• Heat just until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and add: 3/4 cup milk.
• Transfer the mixture to a bowl, cover, and place in the refrigerator until completely cool. Freeze in an ice-cream maker following the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer the frozen sherbet into a clean dry container, cover, and store in the freezer for several hours to firm up before serving.
• Add 2 strips of lemon zest when dissolving the sugar. Remove before freezing.
• Use Meyer lemons and reduce the sugar to 1 cup.

Steps:

• In a large pitcher, mix together the lemon juice and sugar. Stir in the orange juice, milk, and pineapple juice. Pour into a plastic container, and freeze until stiff.

Steps:

• Process zest, sugar, and salt in a food processor until damp, ten to fifteen 1-second pulses.
• With the machine running, add lemon juice and water in a slow steady stream; continue to process until the sugar is fully dissolved, about 1 minute.
• Strain the mixture through a non-reactive fine-mesh strainer into a medium bowl to remove pulp and zest; stir in Triple Sec, then cover with plastic wrap and chill in the freezer until very cold, about 40º, 30-60 minutes (Alternatively, set the bowl over larger bowl containing ice water).
• Do not let mixture freeze.
• When mixture is cold, using a whisk, whip the cream in a chilled medium bowl until soft peaks form. Whisking constantly, add the chilled juice mixture in a steady stream, pouring against the edge of the bowl.
• Immediately start the ice cream machine and add the juice/cream mixture to the frozen insert.
• Churn until the sherbet has the texture of soft-serve ice cream, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Remove the canister from the machine and transfer the sherbet to a storage container; press plastic wrap directly against the surface of the sherbet (to prevent ice crystals from forming) and freeze until firm, at least 3 hours. Can be wrapped well in plastic and frozen for up to one week.
• To serve, let sherbet stand at room temperature until slightly softened and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the sherbet registers 12º to 15º.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together.
• Pour into your ice cream maker bowl.
• Follow your ice cream maker's instructions.
