Homemade Watermelon Sorbet

Looking for an incredibly light, refreshing and healthy dessert recipe to make this

summer? Try making this delicious watermelon sorbet!

Ingredients

• ¼ watermelon (about 700 grams, rind removed)
• ¼ cup freshly-squeezed orange juice (about 100 grams)
• 1 Tbsp 15 grams white granulated sugar
• A tiny sprinkle of Kosher salt (a few grains of salt)
• 2 rosemary leaves (finely minced)

Instructions 

• Blend together the watermelon, orange juice, white granulated sugar, Kosher salt,
• and minced rosemary until you arrive at a smooth puree consistency.
• Transfer the contents to a ceramic or glass baking dish, and place in the freezer for zorty-five minutes to chill.
• Once chilled and beginning to freeze, stir the mixture every fifteen minutes, to avoid the mixture from freezing completely solid.
• When you are ready to serve, allow the sorbet to sit at room temperature for ten minutes.
• Scoop the sorbet and serve in chilled dessert bowls.

Notes

You can make this recipe without the added sugar, although note that the sorbet will become harder in the freezer without it. I’ve seen this recipe made with a squeeze of fresh lime or lemon juice.
