Recipe Type: sorbet, tomato, savory sorbet, ramekins
Prep Time: 15 min
Total Time: 15 min
Servings: 4
Ingredients:
1/2 cup tomatoes, roughly chopped
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons onion, roughly chopped
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
pinch of Cayenne pepper, add more for spicier
4 (1/4 cup) ramekins, lined with plastic wrap
Instruction:
In a saucepan bring tomatoes, water, sugar and onion to a boil, lower temperature and simmer 8 to 10
minutes. Transfer mixture to a mini food processor, puree until smooth; strain, discard solids, pour into a small bowl. Add red wine vinegar, salt and cayenne
pepper to taste blending well.
Spoon mixture into prepared plastic lined ramekins (this makes it easy to
serve), cover and freeze. When ready to serve invert
ramekins onto individual plates, remove plastic wrap and garnish with balsamic glaze (available at Trader
Joe's).
Note: Another idea for serving savory tomato sorbet: Put into a small bowl;
freeze.
When ready to serve use a melon baller to make tiny balls. Serve 1 to 3 balls in
stemmed cordial
glasses or place 1 to 3 balls sorbet on each plate alongside a salad or
seafood dish. This method will serve approximately 8.
