Now that it is nearly sorbet season again...........

Posting links is what we are all about here AMH. Technically speaking I posted the recipe but I copied it from one of our cooking classes so cannot take the credit.  I will be doing this one myself once the warmer weather arrives.

AMH a banana should help cream it up if you a looking for a change from the iciness while you are pregnant.  I often do this for my egg allergic DS

Great tip faffa.  I'll try that one once it is consistently warm here 

[AMH]

Thanks faffa!  I don't have any coconut oil on hand but bananas I have in abundance.   Yum, might make this this afternoon!

Thanks JudyDawn!

I have some rockmelon (cantalope) and was thinking of trying that with banana as well.  If it's a success I will report back.

I have also found the "no egg" egg replacer works well instead of the egg white.  and although its not a standard in many peoples cupboards, it lasts for ages, and actually works out much cheaper than eggs.

Oh that's good to know!  I have a son allergic to egg, and while he can have egg in some things (like 1 egg as binder in meatballs), I use no-egg if there are a few eggs in the recipe, or it is an uncooked recipe.  Hadn't thought of using it for sorbet!

i've never put the egg white in my sorbet

[AmandaN]

I haven't being putting egg white in, but I have been meaning to try and see the difference.

I prefer the sorbets with the egg white (or substitute), but we had a preg lady over so gave the "no egg" replacer a try, worked just as well as the actual egg white, is cheaper, and sits better with us given its not raw egg.  So have used egg replacer ever since.

Great ideas for replacing the egg white

Has anyone used rockmelon for sorbet? I have one here that needs using up.

[Meagan]

Yes you may want to freeze some of it too as it is quite watery and you will have a more liquid result.

[cottchick]

It turned out well - I would use less sugar next time though as the rockmelon is so sweet.
