Sorbet

[Bluestone]

At what point during a meal do you serve sorbet?

[friedgreentomato]

between courses as a palate cleanser

[Bluestone]

Ah brill. I was hoping you were on.
Is it between every course?

[MarkRae]

^^ Correct, especially if the course before is fish and the one after isn't...

[Bluestone]

No fish, but 5 courses. Do I serve it between all of those? Would it not be a bit much/overkill?

[MarkRae]

What are the courses? I'd serve it before the main course...

[Bluestone]

CCanapes (cheese based)
starter (mushroom)
turkey
Christmas pud/cheesecake
cheeses

What d'ya reckon?

[Bluestone]

Excuse the spelling. Am on my phone.

[MarkRae]

Sounds lovely, but wouldn't have thought it needed a sorbet. If you definitely want to have one then before the turkey...

[friedgreentomato]

just between the starter and the turkey you can get away with just the once as there are no strong flavours involved.

[Bluestone]

That's great, thankyou :-)

[venator]

We often have a sorbet instead of a heavy pud, and before the cheese.

[pastafreak]

Don't take this wrong...but there is an awful lot of cheese in your menu. Just an observation.

[Bluestone]

That's because I love cheese... :-)

[NoMercy]

Between the starter and the main :-)

[jno]

somewhere between the cheese and the cheese, then. And as venator says, you can have it before the cheese too.

[mccfluff]

lol jno

how about a blue cheese sorbet, just to complete the theme

as it's Christmas, stilton sorbet sounds good.
