So the photo depicts a mash-up of what’s been in the fridge and is now deemed “parfait ready.” There was a lemon olive oil cake that fell in the middle, some gorgeous berries, a bit of squirty cream…and the new STAR of the show, two ingredient lemon sorbet. Don’t forget to save your lemon vessels; they make impressive bowls!

Two Ingredient Lemon Sorbet

• 1 c. water
• 1 c. sugar
• 1/4 lemon zest (1 large or 2 lemons)
• 1 c. freshly squeezed lemon juice (2-3 lemons)

1. In a small sauce pan, combine water and sugar. Bring to a boil.
2. Immediately simmer and stir occasionally until all sugar is dissolved.
3. Stir in lemon zest and simmer another five minutes.
4. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
5. Once cool, stir in lemon juice.
6. Pour into a freezer-safe container and freeze at least four hours.
7. Can be served with a shot of vodka or limoncello for a clean, tart digestif.
