Instructions: Valerie- here is a light little dessert from "Chiles" by W. Park Kerr its called Pineapple Sorbet w/ Serranos and Purple Basil: Youll need 1 1/2 cups water, 1 cup + 2 tbs sugar, 3 fresh serranos cut into thin rounds, 5 med. springs of purple basil (or sweet), 1 med. pineapple, peeled,cored, and cut into 1 inch chunks, and 1/4 fresh lime juice.

combine water, sugar and serranos in a small sauce pan. Bring to a simmer over med. heat, stir to dissolve sugar. Remove from heat, stir in basil, let stand, covered until cool. Strain the syrup and toss basil and serranos.

In a food processor, combine pineapple and lime juice and process until smooth. Add puree to serrano syrup, cover and refridge until very cold (at least 5 hours). Transfer mixture to an ice cream maker and churn. Cover and freeze. You can make this up to two days ahead of time.
