When sour cherries are in season, this preparation really shows off their color and flavor. Do not omit the salt as it keeps the sorbet ‘scoopable’ instead of a solid block of ice. Preparation time does not include time for pitting cherries. I get mine in Door County, Wisconsin, already pitted.
Ingredients
- 3 cups pitted tart red cherries
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1/3 cup dry white wine
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Place the cherries into the work bowl of a food processor, and process until pureed, about 1 minute. Add sugar, white wine, almond extract, and salt to the pureed cherries, and process again to mix well, about 30 seconds.
Step 2
Pour the mixture into a 6-cup freezer container with a flat bottom. Cover the sorbet, and freeze until partially frozen, 3 to 4 hours. Stir and scrape the frozen sorbet into the soft part of the sorbet to mix well; cover and freeze 2 to 3 more hours. Repeat stirring and scraping, cover again, and freeze overnight.
