Mirabelle plums sorbet
« on: September 20, 2013, 06:55:14 am »
Name of Recipe: Mirabelle sorbet
Number of People: 4
Ingredients:
750 g of mirabelle plums
mirabelle plums brandy
50 g of brown sugar
1 egg white

Preparation:
Although with 3 weeks of delay, the mirabelle plums are there for my greatest pleasure. They are beautiful, SIPs of sugar, a real pleasure. I made this last night for a friend who dined at home.

A few hours before the meal, pit the Mirabelle to have about 500 g and freeze them.

At the time of the dessert:

Caramelize the remaining [/img]mirabelles in a little butter and brown sugar. Flame them at mirabelle plums brandy.

Put in your TMX, 50 g of sugar cane, process at speed 10, 10 sec. You'll get the icing sugar.

Simply add 500 g of frozen mirabelle in the TMX and process at speed 10, 50 sec. You will get something looking like a crumble. Add 1 egg white and continue speed 10 until the sorbet appears.

Put scoops of mirabelle sorbet on plates, spoon warm caramelized mirabelles.

Enjoy.

That sounds lovely with the caramelised plum. Mirabelle plums are yellow, is that correct?
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

We don't get them over here in the West Frozzie. ( I don't think so anyway). I guess you could use any yellow plum, would that be ok?

I guess you could try although mirabelle plums are small golden and sweet ... Im sure there would be something similar here as a substitute.. I havent tried yellow plums here .. Not recently anyway so cant comment.. My grandmother in law used to give us bags of them and make jam... Yum.. Memories :)

Sure any plum wil be ok.

But simply try it with raspberries or bluberries.

I believe you can do it with lots of fruit that have a hint of acidity.
