Recipe: Bittersweet chocolate sorbet is easy to make, irresistibly creamy and versatile - OCRegister

Bittersweet chocolate sorbet is a dessert every cook should have in their recipe arsenal. It is easy to prepare and irresistibly creamy. But most of all, it is extremely versatile because it pairs beautifully with almost any fruit. Berries are a favorite.

When buying berries, select those that are highly colored without soft spots, discoloration or mold. If boxed, tilt container to see if berries move. If they stick together it is a sign that they are moldy. Refrigerate, dry and unwashed, on a shallow pan lined with paper towels. Rinse briefly with cold water just before use.

Bittersweet Chocolate Sorbet

Yield: 6 servings

INGREDIENTS

2 cups water

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup agave syrup

3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped

2/3 cup Dutch-processed (alkalized) unsweetened cocoa powder

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Garnish: 2 cups fresh berries (if using strawberries, hull and quarter)

Optional garnish: Pound cake, fresh mint

PROCEDURE

1. Combine water, sugar and agave syrup in heavy-bottomed medium saucepan. Whisk to combine and bring to boil on medium-high heat, stirring frequently. When sugar dissolves, remove from heat and add chopped chocolate; whisk until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth.

2. Place cocoa in sieve and shake to sift into medium bowl. Whisk in chocolate-sugar mixture a little at a time. Whisk in vanilla. Cool to room temperature. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing the wrap onto surface of chocolate mixture. Chill at least 1 hour or up to 6 hours.

3. Whisk mixture and process in ice cream machine according to manufacturer’s instructions. Transfer to plastic bowl with a lid; cover surface with plastic wrap. Cover container with lid and freeze for several hours. Place in refrigerator for 15 minutes before serving for easier scooping.

4. Scoop into 6 small bowls and spoon berries around the edge of the scoop. Serve.
