Sweet and Silky Strawberry Sorbet

Sweet and Silky Strawberry Sorbet

This sweet, soft strawberry sorbet rivals any brand in the grocery store. Unable to find the perfect recipe, I made my own. Most homemade sorbets resemble an icy slushie, but this one is thickened before freezing, yielding a melt-in-your-mouth treat that will please even the pickiest sorbet lover. It’s dually great because it can be made in an ice cream machine or your regular freezer.
