WIAFK (CB) - Lemon-Thyme Sorbet



For Weekend in a French Kitchen (Café Boulud) this week, our recipe is Lemon-Thyme Sorbet.  The catch with this one is the requirement for an icecream maker.  I have the Kitchen Aid icecream maker attachment, but that needs to go into your freezer for half a day before use and takes up heaps of freezer room that I just don't have.  Accordingly, my sorbet was left largely to freeze itself.

The end result was surprisingly delicious, especially as the recipe was very simple.  The sorbet is pleasantly lemony, and not overly sweet.  I really enjoyed it as is.

To see what the other WIAFK (Café Boulud) cooks thought of this sorbet, visit the LYL section of the website.

Such a lovely, simple idea! And I've got the same issue with the KA ice cream bowl and lack of room in my freezer! :(

I love that you didn't need an ice cream maker to pull this off. Saves a step! Your lemon dish is darling and your sorbet looks delicious.

It looks like your sorbet turned out perfectly...and I would love to taste this so I need to make this one, too. Maybe I will just take the whole week and do nothing but cook and bake...tell everyone I am gone and don't disturb me. lol Yeah, that's the plan!
