JAPANESE KNOTWEED SORBET - FORAGER CHEF



Japanese Knotweed Sorbet - Forager Chef image

Yield: about 3 cups of sorbet

Provided by Alan Bergo

Categories     Appetizer    Dessert

Prep Time 25 minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

Japanese knotweed (tender young shoots only, leaves removed, washed, cleaned and peeled if possible to yield 1 lb)
1 cup white sugar or maple syrup (or a blend)
1 cup water
Dash of lime juice (to taste)
2 green apples (peeled and cored to yield about 7.5 oz)
2 tablespoons cornstarch (optional)

Steps:

  • Chop the knotweed and apples roughly, and if possible, pulse in a food processor to speed up the cooking process.
  • Transfer the knotweed and apples to a bowl, mix with the cornstarch, then the maple syrup, allow to macerate for a few minutes, then transfer to a sauce pan (4 qt capacity is good) and cook on medium-high, until the apple pieces are soft, about 10 minutes.
  • Continue cooking until the mixture is thick, and the cornstarch and knotweed slime have activated (slime, yum!), then transfer to a highspeed blender and puree until as smooth as possible. I like to pass it through a chinois or fine strainer at this point, especially If I’m picking older knotweed, but you don’t have to if your knotweed is very tender.
  • Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then season with the lime juice to taste, pour into an ice cream machine and process according to the manufacturers directions.
  • Mine usually spins in the machine for about 45 minutes. When the mixture is slightly stiff, like sour cream, transfer to a container with a tight-fitting lid and freeze for at least 3-4 hours to firm.
