Posh Pear Sorbet

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 ¼ lb Bartlett pears, cut into cubes (leave peels on)
• ½ cup raw organic honey
• 2 cups water
• ¼ tsp sea salt
• 1 lemon

  juiced
• twist of lemon peel

  for garnish
• fresh mint leaves

  for garnish
• pear slices

  for garnish

Instructions

• 1 In a medium sauce pan, heat 2 cups water with the honey and pears over medium
  high heat and bring to a boil. 
• 2 Next reduce heat to a medium simmer and partially cover the pan.
• 3 Let pears simmer 20-25 minutes or until they are very tender. 
• 4 Remove from heat and stir in salt and lemon juice.
• 5 Mash mixture through a fine mesh strainer or a food mill to remove skins.  
  Whisk to blend evenly. 
• 6 Pour purée into a 9 x 13 glass baking dish and cool in the freezer for 20
  minutes. 
• 7 Pour into an ice cream maker and spin/freeze for 25-40 minutes (or according to
  manufacturer directions). I found that the after spinning my pear sorbet for 40
  minutes it became incredibly creamy.
• 8 For a firmer texture, transfer into an airtight container such as a plastic deli
  cup and freeze for another 8 hours before serving. 
• 9 Serve with pear slices or a twist of lemon peel and fresh mint leaves.
