Make this icy and refreshing cherry sorbet when sour cherries are in season to show off their color and flavor. Do not omit the salt as it keeps the sorbet scoopable instead of a solid block of ice.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 3 cups pitted tart red cherries

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • ⅓ cup dry white wine

  • ½ teaspoon almond extract

  • ½ teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Place pitted 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; process to mix well, about 30 seconds.

  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.
