watermelon sorbet [recipe, vegan]

[Guest guest]

This one is stupidly simple. Watermelon. Sugar. Lime juice. Blend. Freeze. Eat.

There are a

few other watermelon sorbet variations at this recipe site. I'll probably be

trying them as I

now have 3/4 of a watermelon in the fridge.

Changes I'd make to this recipe? I'd decrease the sugar. Next time I'll try 1/4

cup. And

move down from there. Even so, this recipe isn't nearly as sweet as supermarket

sorbet as

it is right now. And it tastes like real watermelon rather than a Jolly Rancher.

Also, I paid

no attention to the directions and just threw the sugar and lime juice in the

blender with

the pulp and gave it a whirl. After everything was blended, I put the mixture

into the

freezer for a couple of hours. It started to get slushy. Then I put it in the

ice cream maker

for about 20 minutes and then it was done. I didn't do the optional egg white

variation at

the end.
