Description

This lemon sorbet is a wonderfully refreshing treat, especially on warm days! I've been making it for years and it's always a hit. The combination of sweet sugar and the acidity of the lemon is simply unbeatable. The addition of egg white makes the sorbet particularly creamy and airy. It is perfect as a light dessert after a hearty meal or just in between. The preparation is a bit time-consuming, as the mixture has to be stirred again and again, but it is definitely worth it! An absolute favorite recipe for the summer!
