Ingredients for 4 servings:
- 1 pinch of guar gum
- 4 lemons
- 200 g sugar
- 200 ml water + 2 tbsp
Instructions
Working time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 15 minutes
Quickly stir the guar gum into 2 tablespoons of cold water and let it swell. Grate the zest from the lemons (just the yellow part!), then squeeze the juice (if you want to do the work yourself, you can also fillet them and remove the seeds). Boil the grated lemon with the water and sugar, cover and let the syrup cool, and then strain it through a fine sieve. Briefly blend the guar gum, lemon juice (or pulp), and the syrup, e.g., with a hand blender or in a smoothie maker. Then either freeze it in an ice cream maker for about 30 minutes, or place it in a bowl in the freezer and freeze for about 20 minutes. Remove from the freezer and briefly whip it with a hand mixer. Return to the freezer. Repeat this process every 20 minutes until the sorbet is nice and creamy. Makes about 750 ml of sorbet. If you like it sweeter, feel free to add more sugar. Variations with basil, rosemary, or mojito mint are also delicious. Simply blend a few leaves or needles. Each serving contains approximately 140 kcal.
