Mango Sorbet

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ripe mangoes, peeled and diced, 4 1/2 to 5 cups
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice, more or less to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, more or less to taste

Directions

  1. Add the diced mangoes and water to a blender, packing the fruit down as needed, and run it on high until the mixture is completely smooth, about 30 seconds. Set a fine-mesh strainer over a large measuring cup and pour in the purée, pressing it through with a spoon, until you measure 3 cups. Save any extra purée for another purpose.
  2. Scrape the strained purée into a large bowl, then whisk in the sugar until it has dissolved. Add the lime juice and salt a little at a time, whisking and adjusting to taste as you go.
  3. Refrigerate the purée until it is thoroughly cold, 2 to 3 hours. Churn it in an ice cream maker following the manufacturer's instructions, then spoon it into an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours before serving.
