Strawberry Rhubarb Sorbet Recipe 455

Steps:

• In a sauce pan, add the rhubarb, orange juice, water and maple syrup. Bring to a boil. Then turn down and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb has turned to a mush (about 10 minutes). Once it is mushy, turn it off the heat and let it get back to room temperature. Once at room temperature, place the mixture in a container in the fridge for a few hours. Once cooled in the fridge, pour the mixture into a blender with the strawberries. Blend until smooth. Take a taste test. Mine came out a bit tart. I liked that, but if you prefer a more sweetened sorbet, you can add a few tablespoons of maple syrup or honey and blend for another 30 seconds. Pour the mixture into the ice cream machine. Mine took about 15 minutes to get to a soft serve consistency. If you like a harder sorbet, you can put it in the freezer for an hour before eating. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Put rhubarb, sugar, salt and lemon juice in a nonreactive skillet. Add 1 cup water and simmer over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, until softened.
• Purée rhubarb mixture in a blender until smooth, about 2 minutes, then cool. (You may prepare rhubarb purée 1 to 2 days ahead.)
• Use an ice cream machine to freeze rhubarb purée, then transfer to an airtight container and store in freezer compartment of refrigerator until sorbet is firm, about 1 hour. Remove and hold at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Combine sugar, water and lemon juice in heavy large saucepan. Stir over low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and bring to boil. Add rhubarb. Simmer until rhubarb is tender , about 10 minutes. Transfer mixture to processor and puree until smooth. Stir in corn syrup. Refrigerate mixture until cold, about 1 hour.
• Transfer rhubarb mixture to ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's instructions. Freeze. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Keep frozen.)

Steps:

• Wash the rhubarb stalks and trim the stem and leaf ends. Cut the rhubarb into 1/2-inch (2-cm) pieces.

• To make a lovely Red Wine-Poached Rhubarb Compote that goes beautifully with this sorbet, use cookbook author Susan Loomis's recipe: for 6 servings, cut 1 pound (450 g) rhubarb into green bean-sized strips. In a nonreactive saucepan, combine 2 cups (500 ml) red wine, 1/2 cup (100 g) sugar, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 cinnamon stick, and a pinch of ground cloves. Bring to a boil, then simmer until the wine is reduced by about one-third. Serve a scoop of Strawberry-Rhubarb Sorbet in the middle.
