    List of Ingredients




    2/3 cup sugar
    1 1/2 cups water
    2 cups homemade cr�me fra�che (recipe follows) or two 8-ounce store-bought containers
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
    Selection of raspberries and blueberries

    Cr�me Fra�che

    2 cups heavy cream
    1/3 cup sour cream (do not use nonfat)

    Recipe



    Prepare cr�me fra�che:
    1. Combine ingredients in a small bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and place on a counter for at least 24 hours, stirring mixture occasionally. When mixture is thick, place in an airtight container and refrigerate. It will keep at least 2 weeks. Makes about 2 cups.

    Prepare sorbet:

    2. In a medium-size heavy saucepan, bring the sugar and water to a boil, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Cook 1 more minute. Pour syrup into a heat-proof bowl and chill until completely cold, about 1 hour. Remove bowl from refrigerator and whisk in cr�me fra�che, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Transfer to an ice cream maker and process according to manufacturer's instructions.

    Scoop into bowls and serve with berries.




    Making your own cr�me fra�che is simple and inexpensive; plan ahead, as it takes between 24 and 36 hours.
