Ginger-Peach Sorbet

Courses: Dessert
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

4   Ripe peaches - peeled, pitted,
  And cut into chunks
2 tablespoons 30mlFresh lime juice
2 tablespoons 30mlSugar
1   Egg white
4   Sweet stem ginger in syrup or
  Crystallized ginger - chopped

Recipe Instructions

In a food processor fitted with a metal blade, combine the peaches, lime juice, and sugar. Process to a smooth puree. Pour the puree into a shallow metal pan. Place the pan in the freezer and freeze until the edges are firm and the center is soft, about 2 hours.

In a large bowl, beat the egg white until almost stiff; set aside. Return the semi-frozen peach puree to the food processor and process until it becomes frothy, about 30 seconds. Add the ginger and egg white to the processor and, using on-off pulses, process just long enough to blend in the white, 3 to 5 seconds.

Pour the mixture into a freezer container, cover tightly, and place in the freezer until firm but not frozen solid, 1 to 2 hours. If it freezes solid, allow it to soften in the refrigerator before serving, about 30 minutes.

This recipe yields about 3 cups; serves 4.
