Peaches

While working last week we went to Lisa Morr's ranch and were treated to a bucket of her wonderful peaches. 

The tree is literally right outside the barn door. All the horses have a peach everyday and so do the riders and there still more for the taking!


          
             


             I made Fresh Peach and Sriracha sorbet.
                 
                                                     


Here is a bit of info on the Thai sauce.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sriracha_sauce


This is one of the most delicious sorbet's I have every tasted! It's peach time! 


Here is the recipe.
ingredients:
2 pounds ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced

• 1 cup water
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Sriracha
• Mint sprigs, for garnish

preparation:
In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the peaches, water, sugar, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer gently for 5 minutes. Let the mixture cool slightly. Carefully pour the peach mixture into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until smooth. Transfer the puree to an airtight container. Cover and refrigerate until chilled thoroughly, at least 4 hours, or until ready to use.

Add the Sriracha and process in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. (Some machines might require additional time in the freezer to set.) Serve in bowls. Garnish with sprigs of mint.
