Fresh Fig Sorbet

1 cup sugar
3 cups water
1 cup crushed fresh figs, variety of choice

Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan, and place over high heat. Cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute, or until sugar dissolves. Bring syrup to a boil. Boil, without stirring, 1 minute. Remove saucepan from heat and stir in crushed figs. Place sorbet mixture in refrigerator for 1 hour. (Transfer to smaller container, if necessary.)

Transfer sorbet mixture to an ice cream maker, and freeze according to appliance instructions, typically 20 to 30 minutes. (If you don’t have an ice cream maker, see alternate instructions in *Notes below.)

Remove sorbet from ice cream maker, and place in a covered container in the freezer for 1 hour, or until desired consistency is reached. Serve at once, or keep in the freezer until ready to serve.
