Pear Sorbet
A touch of ginger gives this lovely sorbet a wonderfully fresh flavor!

• 1 - 15 ounce can pear halves in heavy syrup
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon finely chopped crystallized ginger
• 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel

Cover a 9 inch glass pie plate with plastic wrap, lining the entire plate. Drain syrup from pears into small bowl; transfer pears to lined plate. Add sugar, ginger and lemon peel to syrup and stir until sugar dissolves. Pour syrup mixture over pears. Cover and freeze until solid, at least 6 hours.

Turn pear mixture out onto work surface; peel off plastic. Cut into 1 inch chunks. Place in processor; blend until smooth. Freeze again in covered container 1 hour. To serve, scoop sorbet into dessert dishes.
