These two sorbets were part of our ten course New American Tasting Menu we did the day after Thanksgiving.

We have been trying to post some of the recipes we did that night and as usual, it has taken awhile to get things pulled together. I think everyone worked harder on this “feast” than any in past years. We had ten courses, ten wines, ten people (oh, that means we all consumed about one bottle of wine per person). That also means that we had 100 plates, 60 pieces of silverware, and 10+ glasses. We also had what was referred to as “intermission” wines.  If after eating our course and consuming our 2 oz. pour, you wanted more wine, we had some available.  I think we all partaked of “intermission” wines. 🙂

https://fireheartmusic.com/zqg4aiz I have made this Lemon Basil sorbet before. It is one of Emeril’s recipes and back in the summer I traded the lemon for fresh watermelon and that also made a delicious sorbet. I had never had a port fig sorbet before but I had a bottle of port and some fresh figs so I thought, why not.  My daughter in law made the Port and Fig sorbet and I made the Lemon Basil sorbet to use as  palate cleansers between some of our courses.

Fresh Fig & Port Sorbet

adapted from Ms. Adventures in Italy

Ingredients

  • 8 fresh figs
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 Meyer lemon zest and juice
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 4 tablespoons port
  • 1 1/2 cups water

Instructions

  1. Remove the stems and hard bits from the figs and cut into quarters. Add figs, 1/4 cup water, and Meyer lemon zest to a sauce pan. As the mix is heated, add the zest of the Meyer lemon juice. Cook covered for 10 minutes or until the figs have softened and begin to break apart. Stir two or three times during the 10 minutes.
  2. Stir in sugar and cook uncovered until the figs begin to thicken and become syrupy (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat.
  3. Using a food processor or stick blender, puree the fig mixture. Remember, it’s HOT so use extreme caution.
  4. To the puree, add the 1 1/2 cups water, port, and juice of the Meyer lemon. I opted to user Meyer lemon as it’s fragrant but not overly acidic. I didn’t want the sorbet to be too tangy.
  5. Once the mix is cool, pour into an ice-cream mixer and mix according to your mixer’s directions. I let it run for about 25 minutes and it was semi-firm. Pour into a container and freeze until ready to serve.
