Ingredients

2 cups sugar
2 cups water
4 pints strawberries, hulled and sliced
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup light corn syrup

Directions

Bring the sugar and 2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and allow the mixture to simmer, without stirring, until the sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Set aside to cool completely.

Put the strawberries and lime juice into a food processor and puree. Press the strawberry puree through a strainer to remove the seeds.

When the sugar syrup has cooled completely add it to the strawberry puree. Add the corn syrup and stir well. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Sorbet is particularly soft after churning but firms up after freezing.

The Best!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I went strawberry picking and had a ton of berries. I made this recipe exactly as written. I turned out Fantastic! I... didn't think it was too sweet. Don't leave out the lime juice, it really adds to the flavor. Straining out the seeds was really no big deal and made a nice smooth flavorful sorbet. Will be making another batch.Read more

Fantastic

First time I have ever made a sorbet and it turned out great. Removing the seeds was rather time consuming.

SuperSweet
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I prepared this recipe as directed, but did not add the corn syrup and I did not strain the seeds. The sorbet turned out... very well. It is SUPERsweet. I am considering halfing the sugar next time. I like the extra "crunch" the seeds add to the sorbet so I will continue to omit the straining instruction. Read more

Great!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this sorbet and replaced the strawberries with mango and it was amazing! The consistency is perfect right out of the... ice cream maker, and it gets a little too hard after being in the freezer. Overall, a great recipe.Read more
