Sour Cherry Soup

Ingredients:

• 1 (24 oz.) jar pitted tart cherries
• 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
• pinch salt
• 1 cup lime sorbet

Makes 4 Servings (1/2 cup soup, 2 tablespoons cherries, and 1/4 cup sorbet per serving)

1. Put the cherries in a sieve set over a medic bowl. Remove 1/2 cup of the cherries and set aside; reserve the juice. Put the remaining cherries in a food processor and puree until smooth. Pour the cherry puree through a sieve set over the same bowl, pressing hard on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Stir in the reserved cherry juice, the lemon juice, and salt.
2. Refrigerate, covered, until the soup is thoroughly chilled, at least 2 hours or up to 1 day. Ladle 1/2 cup soup into each of 4 shallow soup bowls. Garnish each serving with 2 tablespoons of the reserved cherries and 1/4-cup scoop of the sorbet. Serve at once.
