Perfect Strawberry Sorbet

This sorbet also works well with other types of berries, or three cups of diced mangos and a spritz of lime. To make a “creamy” nondairy version, add a cup of coconut milk, sweetened to taste, to the fruit mixture in the blender or food processor.

Makes 6 servings

• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 1 cup water
• 2 1/2 pints strawberries

Combine sugar and water in a saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cool completely.
