Green Grape Granita Recipe - Cooking Index
| 1/3 cup | 78ml | Dry white wine |
| 1/3 cup | 65g / 2.3oz | Sugar |
| 1 lb | 454g / 16oz | Seedless green grapes - (abt 3 cups) |
| 1 tablespoon | 15ml | Fresh lemon juice - or to taste |
In a saucepan combine the wine, the sugar, and 1 cup water and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Simmer the syrup for 5 minutes and let it cool. In a blender or food processor puree the grapes, add the syrup, and blend the mixture well. Strain the puree through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on the solids, stir in 1 cup cold water and the lemon juice, and chill the mixture, covered, for 1 to 2 hours, or until it is cold. The mixture may be made up to this point 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled.
Stir the mixture, transfer it to 2 metal ice cube trays without the dividers or a shallow metal bowl, and freeze it, stirring it with a fork every 20 to 30 minutes depending on the temperature of the freezer and crushing the large frozen clumps, for 2 to 3 hours, or until it is firm but not frozen hard.
Scrape the granita with a fork to lighten the texture and serve it in chilled bowls.
This recipe yields approximately 1 quart.
