-0600 This is the original method of for  preparation. They're still
made this way in most neighborhoods  containing a large percentage of
people of southern Italian descent.  Begin the preceding night by
squeezing the lemons into a strainer  formed by placing a coffee filter
in a strainer.  Strain the lemon  juice into a small bowl containing
the cold water - this is a very  slow (drop-by-drop) process. Add the
sugar the next morning. Mix very  well with a wooden spoon until the
sugar is completely dissolved.  Pour into a tin or aluminum pan. Place
the pan in the freezer. Let  rest for about 5 hours, breaking up the
solid layer of ice which  forms at least once every hour. Remove the
pan from the freezer. Cut  the ice into pieces with a knife. Place the
ice pieces in an ice  crusher (or into a blender running at low speed).
The ice should form  a smooth consistent texture of imperceptible
grains (almost like ice  cream - no large grains or chunks). Transfer
to individual serving  glasses.  REC.FOOD.RECIPES ARCHIVES  /DESSERTS
