goodbye citrus, hello summer
Thursday, April 2, 2009
Well, summer might be too optimistic, but spring is definitely on its way. Even though it isn’t their season, I associate citrus fruits with summer— especially citrus flavored ice creams and sorbets. What could be better than lemon sorbet on a hot summer day? I know that we can buy oranges, limes, and lemons year round and so their season is somewhat irrelevant but the taste can really go downhill once summer starts. Now is the time to find a really superb variety of flavorful citrus fruits. So, while we still have delicious oranges and lemons on the shelves of our markets, I suggest you take some time to make this orange sherbet and dream of summer.
