Tangerine Sorbet (Pareve)
Preparation Time: 30 minutes
Chilling Time: 6 hours or overnight
Ingredients
9 large tangerines (10 or 11 if small) use oranges if tangerines are unavailable
1-3/4 cups sugar
1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 cup water
With a zester, remove the zest from 4 tangerines or oranges. Juice all the tangerines and set aside.
You need about 3-1/2 - 4 cups of juice.
Combine the zest, sugar and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat
to medium-low, and simmer until the syrup is reduced to about 1 cup, about 20 minutes. Remove from
heat and let cool.
Strain the cooled syrup into a large bowl and save the zest for garnish. Stir in the tangerine juice
and cover and refrigerate until well chilled. To speed chilling, place the bowl in a larger bowl
filled with ice and stir often.
Place the chilled mixture in a stainless steel baking pan and freeze until softly set, about 2 hours.
Transfer the mixture to a food processor and mix until smooth and fluffy, about 10 seconds.
Repeat the same freezing, mixing process again. Transfer the sorbet to a plastic container and freeze
until set, about 4 hours or overnight. Remove the sorbet from the freezer about 15 minutes before serving.
