Step by step recipe


Stage 1 - 15 min.
Pear sorbet
Peel pears, and put them immediately into cold water with the juice of half a lemon, or a pinch of vitamin C added.

We do that because peeled pears turn brown quickly.

Stage 2 - 5 min.
Pear sorbet
Drain pears, cut into quarters and discard core.

Stage 3 - 5 min.
Pear sorbet
Cut quarters into small pieces and put in the goblet of a blender.

Add juice of half a lemon, a pinch of vitamin C, 1 tablespoon pear eau-de-vie and 350 ml sugar syrup.

Stage 4 - 3 min.
Pear sorbet
Mix until you obtain a smooth puree.

Put in the fridge, or freezer, in a sealed container if not to be used immediately.

We do that so that the mixture is very cold before putting in the ice cream maker.

Stage 5 - 1 min.
Pear sorbet
Pour into the ice-cream maker.

Stage 6 - 25 min.
Pear sorbet
And churn the sorbet.

Stage 7
Pear sorbet
Serve on its own or as the basis for other desserts.
Remarks

Passion fruit jellies
Usually to make fruit jellies or (fruit "paste"), it's like jam but you need to cook fruit pulp and sugar much longer. Unfortunately, this long cooking is bad for both vitamins and flavour. In this recipe we use a special jam gelling agent, to reduce cooking time as much as possible .
