Ingredients for Apricot Sorbet

  • Apricot Halves
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

How to Make Apricot Sorbet

  1. Freeze 2 cups of fresh apricots whole in a freezer-safe container for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  2. Place the frozen apricots in a high-speed blender or food processor.
  3. Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice.
  4. Secure the lid and blend until completely smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. This may take a few minutes.
  5. Taste and adjust sweetness if desired. Add more sugar for a sweeter sorbet.
  6. Serve immediately for a softer sorbet, or transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2 hours for a firmer consistency.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
