Recipe on yet another sorbet. I think I’ve just decided to try to make sorbet out of every Danish berry.
Up until now I’ve made sorbet by combining the berries, sugar-water, and whipped aquafaba. However, this time I tried to use syrup instead of water/sugar, since I assumed that it would result in the sorbet becoming less icy. Which, in my opinion, was the case. The sorbet tastes almost the same no matter what method you use. But using syrup might make the sorbet a little less sweet, since syrup has a slightly bitter aftertaste. I think this can be avoided if one uses glucose syrup instead of light syrup.
I works very well to serv this sweet sorbet with thin slices of dark bread which has been roasted with salt and some oil and then crushed into granola (like in the picture below).
