Peach Sorbet with Red Raspberry Melba Sauce Recipe

Serves 6

A new twist on the Peach Melba of yesteryear, named in honor of opera star, Dame Nellie Melba. The original recipe is a dessert of fresh peaches, ice cream, and raspberry (melba) sauce.

Sorbet

29 ounce canned peaches, drained, juice reserved
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup light corn syrup
1 cup water
1/4 cup fresh-squeezed lemon juice

Sauce

12 ounce package whole frozen raspberries, thawed
1 Tablespoons raspberry or blackberry liqueur (or more to taste)
1/3 cup sugar

About 3 cups fresh raspberries or 12 oz. frozen whole raspberries,  partially thawed

DIRECTIONS:

Drain peaches, reserving 1 cup juice. Combine reserved juice, sugar, and corn syrup in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly until all sugar is dissolved. Reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes. Cool to room temperature. (To hasten cooling, saucepan may be placed in a shallow pan of ice cold water.)

Process drained peaches in blender or food processor until smooth, about 10 seconds. Add lemon juice, water and syrup mixture. Process another 10 seconds, or until combined. Pour into 8" square pan and freeze for 4 hours, or until firm enough to scoop.

To make sauce, thaw raspberries and process in food processor or blender for 10 seconds, or until smooth. Strain if desired, to remove seeds. Stir in liqueur and sugar. Refrigerate until ready to serve.  (COOK’S NOTE: Sauce is best if made ahead to allow flavors to mingle.)

To serve, scoop and layer sorbet, raspberry melba sauce and fresh or partially thawed raspberries in tall parfait glasses, starting with a layer of sauce on the bottom. Serve promptly.
