Our Gourmet Guide will help you dis- cover a world of typical restaurants and farm enterpri- ses, of sublime dishes and fine wines, produce of land and sea, reflecting the very best of our traditions and the essential cha- racter of our people and their deep sense of hospita- lity.

Apart from a metropolis, it is hard to find a community as diverse and complex as that of Pontinia which, in spite of deep 'local' roots - (by ‘local’ one might only need to refer to the villages lining the Lepini, Ausoni and Aurunci mountains, and other many examples in the surrounding Ciociaria) - has still managed to bring together such a variety of regional influences.

  • Cool Sorbets, Intensely Flavored the Right Proportion of Sugar Is the Secret to Silky-Smooth Sorbets
    For a sorbet with a light, smooth texture, use an ice-cream maker, which beats air into the sorbet as it freezes. Raspberries make a vibrant sorbet. Chambord, a black- raspberry liqueur, boosts the flavor. Cool Sorbets, Intensely Flavored The right proportion of sugar is the secret to silky-smooth sorbets Photos: Ellen Silverman BY DARREN DEVILLE Copyright © 1996 - 2007 The Taunton Press t the small restaurant where I’m the pastry A chef, I always have a long list of rich desserts on our blackboard menu. But the desserts that often set whole tables to “oohing” are my simple, fruity sorbets. My sorbets grab the spotlight because they’re intensely flavored, they combine fruits in unusual ways, and they have a creamy texture that makes it hard to believe they don’t contain milk or cream. One of the things I like most about sorbets is that they’re so easy to make. No matter how busy I am, there’s always enough time to make a great sorbet. All that’s needed is flavorful fruit that’s been puréed or juiced and sugar syrup, which is just sugar and water simmered together. Combine the fruit and syrup, freeze it in an ice-cream maker, and you have a no-fail sorbet. THE FRUITS THAT MAKE THE SORBET When choosing fruit for sorbets, go for what’s most fragrant, even if it’s past its prime. Flavors are at their most intense when fruits are just between ripe and rotten. Mushy mangos, soft strawberries, and tired raspberries all make excellent sorbets.
