Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh strawberries
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 100 milliliters water
Directions
Step 1
Wash and hull the strawberries, removing any stems or leaves.
Step 2
Combine the water and sugar in a small saucepan. Heat over low to medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar fully dissolves, creating a simple syrup. Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature.
Step 3
In a blender or food processor, add the strawberries, cooled simple syrup, and lemon juice. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth.
Step 4
Taste the mixture and, if needed, adjust sweetness or acidity by adding more sugar or lemon juice.
Step 5
Strain the puree through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl to remove seeds for a smoother texture (optional).
Step 6
Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually around 20-25 minutes, until the sorbet reaches a thick, creamy consistency.
Step 7
If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow freezer-safe container and freeze. Stir every 30 minutes with a fork for the first 2-3 hours to break up ice crystals and achieve a smoother texture.
Step 8
Once the sorbet has fully hardened, allow it to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping and serving.
Step 9
Serve in bowls or cups with no need for forks—just a spoon for maximum enjoyment!
