Delicious in Dungeon #10: Exorcism Sorbet

This one's got a bit of continuity, it uses the insect jam and a few other ingredients to create interfaith holy water, which then becomes a sorbet.

Ghosts!! Of sorts. And leftover jam. It kinda already looks like a juiced Gengar...


Here's the holy gang.. got some chopped up consecrated melon i had in the freezer, sacred icing sugar, enchanted lime juice, purifying salt and cleansing mint for garnish.


Im putting the melon, plenty of sugar, a splash of lime juice and a tiny pinch of salt in a blender...


Its looking nice and sludgey, I still fear with all that water content its going to turn into rock solid ice..


Once its all ready (i needed to do 2 halves to fit the blender) it can go in my little ice cream machine! Again, this should simply help it from not turning into a solid block of ice, but im not really a master of ratios for making sorbet yet.


Once its been churned and chilled into a kind of slush, i gently stir in the jam to try and get a bit of swirly colour variation before sticking it in the freezer for a day, and just... seeing what happens.


Next day: It looks like its held its shape and swirls! It looks pretty hard but itll probably be scoopable if i put it in the fridge for 10mins.

Pretty good appearance am I right? The texture was obviously not an ideal smooth sorbet, but it was a very nice flavoured ice slush. The melon and blueberry-grape-y jam and hint of mint go really well together. Tastes quite sugary. Is it ok to eat something that's had ghosts all over it? I think so, but it's not vegan. Omit the ghouls n' gummies if you want to do it vegan.
