Soft Orange Sorbet

 

 

 1 lb oranges, peeled and pith removed

 1 cup sugar

1/2 Tbls unflavored gelatin powder 

2 Tbls cold water

1/2 cup hot water

1/2 cup cold water

 

Puree the orange flesh until as smooth as possible.

 

 Combine 2 cups orange puree with sugar over low heat and stir until sugar is dissolved.

 

In a large bowl, stir together the gelatin with 2 Tbls cold water. When it seems smooth, add in the hot water and stir until it's dissolved. Then stir in the 1/2 cup cold water. Stir the orange mixture into the gelatin mixture until homogenous. Cover and chill in the fridge or freezer until totally cold.

 

Churn in an ice cream machine for 20 minutes. It will have a slushy texture. Transfer to a lidded container and freeze until desired hardness.
