Lemon sorbet

How to end a perfect summer dinner? The lemon sorbet is definitely one of the classical solutions, ideal for dessert but also to distract the palate in a dinner of fish.

Ingredients for 4 people:
850 ml water
170 g sugar
2 lemons (zest and juice)

Grate the zest of two lemons, and squeeze the juice.
Meanwhile in a small saucepan dissolve sugar in water and heat stirring with a wooden spoon until the consistency is not that of a syrup. Then stir for a minute and add the lemon rind and juice, cook for fifteen minutes and then cool in a bowl of glass, metal or plastic. When the syrup is cold put it in the icecream maker, or freezer, taking care to turn it occasionally. Eat sorbet after a couple of days.
