Ingredients
1 cup sugar1 cup water1/4 cup corn syrup1 quart fresh strawberries, stems removed, quartered 4 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime/lemon juice
Directions
Makes 8 1/2-cup servings.

Bring the sugar and water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat and simmer without stirring until the sugar dissolves. Transfer to a bowl and let cool completely.

Combine the strawberries and lemon/lime juice in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse to chop the strawberries, about 15-20 times, then process until the strawberries are completely pureed, 1-2 minutes. Press the strawberry puree through a mesh strainer (chinois) to remove seeds. Combine the seedless strawberry puree with the cooled sugar syrup. Chill for 1 hour.

Turn the ice cream machine ON, pour the strawberry mixture into the freezer bowl through the ingredient spout and mix until thickened, about 25-30 minutes. The sorbet will have a "soft serve" texture. Place in an air-tight, freezer safe container, and freeze for another two hours until firm. Enjoy!
