Lemon Sherbet With Raspberry Currant Sauce For 2 Recipes

RASPBERRY SHERBET WITH RASPBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Reserve 1 1/2 cups of the fresh berries to fill the sherbet receptacles at serving time. Put the 1 1/2 pounds of fresh or defrosted frozen berries in the bowl of a food processor with the preserves, and process until liquefied, or push through a food mill fitted with the fine screen. Strain through a sieve to remove any remaining seeds. You should have about 3 1/2 cups of raspberry coulis or puree. Reserve 1 1/2 cups for the sauce, and add the brandy to this sauce. Refrigerate until serving time. Add the lemon juice and water to the remaining 2 cups to be used for the sherbet, and freeze, covered with plastic wrap, in a stainless-steel bowl for about 3 hours, until frozen but not too hard.
• Break the frozen sherbet into pieces with a spoon, and dump them into the bowl of a food processor. Emulsify in several batches or all together until the sherbet becomes creamy and lighter in color. It should not be processed much more than 30 seconds; by then, it will have liquefied a little. Return the puree to the stainless-steel bowl, cover, and put back in the freezer for a few hours.
• To make the sherbet receptacles, line six 1-cup glass bowls with plastic wrap, and spoon a sizable scoop of sherbet inside each.
• With a spoon, press on the center of each scoop to hollow it out, and push the sherbet up around the sides of the cup to create a "nest" in the center. Fold the plastic-wrap edges over the sherbet, and place in the freezer for a few hours, until hard. (This can be done several days ahead).
• To serve: Remove the frozen sherbet receptacles from the freezer, and pull back the plastic wrap to expose the center. Fill each with about 1/4 cup fresh raspberries.
• Invert the sherbet cups carefully in the center of six dessert plates, and remove the plastic wrap. Pour the raspberry sauce around the cups, decorate with lemon peel, mint, or edible flowers, and serve.

LEMON SHERBET

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.

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.
