Just made this sorbet (something of a glut of blackberries in Norfolk!) and it is absolutely delicious. Thank you!

I made this sorbet and served it to guests between the starter and main course as a palate cleanser. We did feel posh! The meal was a ‘Taste of Scotland’ themed evening and the sorbet was a perfect touch of class and a nice wee surprise.

It is so wonderful to find tales and memories of blackberry picking from all over the world. These amazing free fruits are so good for you as well and are rated at the very top for antioxidant powers as well as contain high levels of folic acid.

A good combination for the blackberry sorbet is a passion fruit sorbet. It makes a dramatic color combo and a great tasting sorbet!

[...] Because Saturday the 29th of September was Michaelmas; the start of autumn, official and, so folklore has it, the day the devil pisses on blackberries or spits on them, curses them or puts his cloven hoof on them (depending which part of the country you are from) rendering them inedible!

Blackberries is something I miss from living in London!

Here we can buy them frozen though. It’s great for smoothies and simple sorbets – we keep a box of various frozen fruits in the freezer, bits of banana, apple, pineapples, berries etc. and just put a selection in a blender with some yogurt or juice to eat. It makes a nice ice cream texture and is delicious and healthy – 100% fruits, no sugar or fat required.

My mam would cook the brambles, push them through a seive and add the puree to our porridge before we set off for school. One of my happiest memories

Brambles make great wine!
