BLACK RASPBERRY SHERBET/ICE CREAM

• Refrigerate several hours, or overnight.
• Transfer to an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's directions.

RASPBERRY BUTTERMILK SHERBET

Steps:

• Puree the raspberries, juice and sugar in a food processor until smooth. Pour through a mesh strainer into a bowl and discard the raspberry seeds. Stir in the buttermilk, cream and a pinch of salt, then cover and refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour.
• Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze until firm, at least 2 hours. Serve sprinkled with pepper.

WILD RASPBERRY SHERBET

Steps:

• Heat raspberries and sugar in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring, until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Press raspberry mixture through a strainer into a bowl; discard seeds.
• Stir milk, lemon juice, and cinnamon into raspberry mixture; refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour. Freeze milk mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions.

FRESH RASPBERRY SHERBET

Steps:

• In a medium nonreactive saucepan, cook the fresh raspberries, water, sugar, and salt over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture just begins to simmer, about 7 minutes.
• Pass the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a medium bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
• Add the lemon juice and Triple Sec or vodka; cover with plastic wrap and chill in the freezer until very cold, about 40º, about 30-40 minutes. Do not let mixture freeze.
• When the 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 canister; churn until the sherbet has the texture of soft-serve ice cream, 25-30 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. The sherbet can be wrapped well in plastic wrap and frozen for up to one week.
• To serve, let the sherbet stand at room temperature until slightly softened and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the sherbet registers 12º to 15º.
