Instructions
- Heat 500 ml (16 fl oz) of water in a pan. Add the sugar and stir to dissolve.
- Add in the lemon juice and the glucose syrup. Bring to the boil.
- Add the blackcurrants, bring back to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Turn off the heat, allow to cool slightly then process with a hand blender or a food processor.
- Pass the liquid through a fine sieve and allow to cool.
- Pour the cold mixture into a tub and place in the freezer for 3-4 hours.
- Remove the tub from the freezer and scrape the inside with a spoon. Beat the mixture with a hand whisk or electric whisk to break up the ice crystals. Return the tub to the freezer for another 1-2 hours. Repeat this step several times (4 or 5 usually) until the whole sorbet is frozen and the texture is quite smooth.
Titli's Tips
The quantities given make about 1½ litres (3 pints) of sorbet.
Help the glucose syrup to come out of its container by warming a spoon and scraping it around the inside of the container. A really cute way to serve sorbet is in an egg cup!
