I love this Italian pomegranate sorbet – and the Italian name for pomegranates, melograno meaning ‘many seeds’. It’s so appropriate for this jewel-like fruit. This simple pomegranate sorbetto, with its balanced sweet/sour flavour from the pomegranate juice, lemon and pomegranate molasses, is inspired by my friend Giovanni Pilu. Giovanni taught me that using glucose syrup in sorbets and ice creams ensures a wonderfully smooth texture. Serve a little glass of Dal Zotto Elena dessert pinot grigio alongside your sorbetto al melograno for a truly Italian sweet treat.
