Watermelon Sorbet

So I had a watermelon at my house



My kids ate some, but not enough

It was starting to turn

Like every season turn, turn turn

So what was I to do...

Make Watermelon Sorbet

Let me say this was not nearly as daunting as I thought it might be.

Ingredients

4 C pureed watermelon (which is about six cups of fruit cut)
1/4 C sugar
Peel from one lime (no pith, just the green)
Salt (just a pinch)
1/2 C Corn Syrup

Place 1 cup of puree in with your sugar, lime, and salt and heat over medium/low until all of the sugar dissolves.


Add in remaining 3 cups of puree and corn syrup.

Continue to heat until all ingredients are incorporated.

Place mixture in a metal pan (I chose a loaf pan)


Then place in freezer until solid

When you are ready to eat you will need to allow the mixture to come to room temperature for easy scooping.
