blood orange sorbet *drool*

the other week our italian market had blood oranges (the large ones), so i bought a few and then i saw the little ones (the gorgeous almost moldy coloured ones) in woolworths, so i grabbed a few more.

i had one recipe that i wanted to remake (i made this last year) - blood orange sorbet!

i tweaked a basic sorbet recipe to taste and produced a nicely sized container of freshly made blood orange sorbet. mmmm.

sorbet recipe
3/4 cup caster sugar
1.5 cup water

combine, bring to boil and cool.

my oranges gave 3 cups of juice. so i added this to my sorbet base and churned away in my kitchenaid icecream attachment. the result was a smidgeon sweet for my liking but the juice of 1 lemon solved that problem!
