Concord Grape Sorbet
Author: Nancy Baggett
This is my favorite way to use fresh Concord grapes. The quick, easy cooking captures and holds the zesty-sweet aroma and flavor perfectly. The finished sorbet is beautiful, refreshing and unique.
Ingredients
  • 4 cups stemmed Concord grapes (about 1½ pounds)
  • Scant 1 cup water
  • ½ to ⅔ cup granulated sugar, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Instructions
  1. Combine the grapes, water, and sugar in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until the grapes begin to release juice, about 4 minutes. Reduce the heat so the grapes boil very gently and cook until they to split apart, 3 to 4 minutes longer. Let stand until cooled just slightly.
  2. Press the mixture through a medium-fine sieve into a large bowl, pressing down to force through as much juice and pulp as possible. Stir the lemon juice into the mixture Refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 3 to 4 hours.
  3. Transfer the mixture to an ice-cream maker, and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a pre-chilled airtight container, and store in the freezer until ready to serve, up to 2 weeks.
