Method
- In a small heavy-bottomed pan add all of the ingredients and stir.
- Place on a medium heat, stir occasionally, bring to a boil and turn off and remove from the heat. Leave to infuse until cooled, about 45 minutes.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-meshed sieve and pour into the ice cream tub.
- Reference the instruction guide to your ice cream maker on how to proceed to make sorbet. In my Cuisinart ice cream maker, I pour the liquid into the pre-frozen tub and process for 25 minutes.
- Scoop sorbet into individual containers or a plastic tub and freeze.
Notes
The author of this recipe has a completely different style ice cream maker than I do, so I improvised with my Cuisinart one. If you want to see the original recipe, click on the link here.
Also I did not have fresh thyme so I used one sprig of fresh rosemary. I took the sprig out after boiling as I wasn't sure how strong it would be. If you want a strong rosemary presence, leave the sprig(s) in mixture while cooling. Might e fun to experiment with lavender, rose, or other fresh herbs too.
