Thursday's Tip: Impress Your Guests With This Simple Strawberry Sorbet

A cool and delicious strawberry sorbet can be an impressive end to a meal on a hot summer’s eve. And the only special equipment required is a food processor or blender. But you don’t have to tell your dinner guests how simple the sorbet was to prepare. That can be your little secret.

Note: While sorbets are generally made without milk products, eggs, or gelatin, this recipe does call for sweetened condensed milk. This is all you’ll need:

1 quart sliced strawberries
1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
2 tsp. lemon juice

Puree all the ingredients together in a food processor or blender. Pour the pureed mixture into a shallow metal pan and freeze until ice crystals form. Use a fork to break up the crystals about every 30 minutes or so and continue to let it freeze until it is solid enough to be scooped into balls. Makes about 6 servings.
