Ingredients
- 10 Lemons
- 3 quarts of Water
- 2.5 pounds of sugar
- 3 Eggs
Directions
- To make a gallon of Lemon Sherbet, you will need to gather at least 10 lemons. (More than 10 if the lemons are small.)
- Measure 3 quarts of cold water and sweeten the water by adding 2.5 of loaf sugar to the cold water.
- Next, beat the whites of the three eggs and add a pinch sugar to the eggs.
- After mixing the sugar and egg whites, you can now stir the eggs and sugar into the the sweetened water mix.
- Once you have mixed the lemon, water, sugar and eggs, you may then place the mixture in a bowl into the freezer. Surround the bowl with ice and salt to freeze.
- Pineapple and orange sherbet could be made the same way if you substitute the lemons for pineapple or oranges.
