Although uva means grape in Italian, Concords are native to North America. A velvety sorbet brings out their inky, foxy intensity. It will, in fact, swing you right into autumn. Ingredients:
2 pounds concord grapes (about 2 quarts), stemmed, divided |
3/4 cup superfine granulated sugar |
Directions:
1. Purée half of grapes in a blender until smooth, then force through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding solids. Repeat with remaining grapes to yield 3 cups purée. Whisk in sugar until dissolved. Chill until very cold, 3 to 6 hours.
2. Freeze in ice cream maker, then transfer to an airtight container and put in freezer to firm up, at least 2 hours.
3. Cooks' note: Sorbet keeps 1 week.
