Preparation Prepare the syrup by boiling the sugar together with the water for 5 minutes. Then slice the lemon rind finely and add. Let it cool.
Let the syrup rest for 2 hours then add the lemon juice and the limoncello. Pass it all through a strainer. Whip the egg white until it is stiff and then add.
Place the mixture in a dish in the freezer and let it freeze. When it becomes solid, take it out and whisk it in the blender until it is creamy. Serve straight away. The Chef's tips The secret of a good sorbetto lies in the freshness of the lemons used. The best kind come from the Amalfi coast, Campania region. Limoncello is a lemon liqueur to be found in the same region. Curiosity The sorbetto with a lemon flavour is generally eaten between the first and second course to help the gastric juices to work.
