A couple of years ago, my mother gave me the gift of my dreams – an ice cream machine. We’ve been using it a lot for making coffee slurpees and frozen yogurt, but last week I had to do something with our passion fruit harvest, and so we had Passion Fruit Orange Sorbet for Shabbat.
Truth is, you don’t need an ice cream machine to make great ice cream. With Passover just around the corner, homemade ice cream or sorbet make an excellent chometz-free dessert. The best thing is that you can take care of your Passover dessert needs ahead of time by making several batches in different flavors all at once. This way you will not have to worry about dessert every time Shabbat or Yom Tov roll around.
This simple recipe is based on a sugar and water (or juice) syrup mixed with the fruit puree of your choice. I suggest that you multiply the quantities in the recipe by the number of batches you need, make all the syrup at once, while at the same time processing different fruit. Then mix each type of fruit with syrup and freeze according to these instructions. (If you happen to have a kosher for Passover ice cream machine, more power to you).
The whole process will take just a little bit more time than making one batch of ice cream, but you’ll be all set for the entire week.
