Made out of freshly squeezed orange juice, when served in the orange peel bowls and garnished with mint leaves, makes poetry on a plate.
Orange Sorbet
A Palate Cleanser
This Palate Cleanser is made using home-grown oranges.
Squeeze the juice out of oranges. Save the peels to be used as serving bowls. Add sugar/honey/maple syrup and salt + lemon juice. Freeze in glass container for 2 hours.
After 2 hours, remove from the freezer, scrape it a bit with the fork, it should break down into pieces. Give it a quick whizz in a food-processor/blender to make it smooth, but not for too long as the heat of the food processor might start melting the sorbet.
Serve it in the cute orange peel bowls or regular bowls. Garnish with a sprig of mint.
What is a Palate Cleanser?
A Palate cleanser, as the name suggests, cleanses the taste palate in between different courses of meals, so that you can clearly distinguish the taste of different food items, especially the ones with robust/heavy flavors, when eaten one after the other.
