Sea Buckthorn Sorbet

How Sea Buckthorn Sorbet is Made

Sea Buckthorn, also known as sea buckthorn, is a hidden gem in the kitchen, often underestimated. The bush produces vibrant yellow berries that deliver an explosion of flavor with every bite.

These small berries are rich in nutrients, particularly Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and flavonoids, which are antioxidants known for strengthening the immune system and reducing the risk of heart disease. Sea Buckthorn also has a high oil and acid content, making it an excellent ingredient for cooking and baking.

Sea Buckthorn has a unique flavor that combines tangy, pruney, and citrus-like notes. This tartness is especially useful in cooking, where it pairs well with various meats, such as game or salmon. It’s also a key component in sauces, both sweet and savory.

In addition to its flavor and nutritional benefits, Sea Buckthorn also has a fantastic texture for cooking, ideal for making jams, compotes, and, of course, sorbet. Its natural thickening power makes it a versatile ingredient.

When making Sea Buckthorn Sorbet, we first thaw the berries, sprinkle them with sugar, and then blend them. The resulting mixture is passed through a machine that separates the seeds and skins, leaving a pure juice. This juice is then combined with water and dry ingredients to create a sharp, tangy sorbet. The final blend is poured into ice cream machines, where it is churned and frozen into a smooth, creamy treat.

This vegan sorbet tastes exactly as it should—bursting with the fresh, vibrant flavors of Sea Buckthorn berries.
