I noticed what seems to be a time reference error—or at least an inconsistency that drew my eye—in an article about making Summer Peach Sorbet in the June 2025 issue of Food & Wine. The introductory text to the recipe (above) says to macerate the fruit in the refrigerator “for a few days.” But the recipe itself (below) says to macerate the fruit “at least 24 hours or up to 48 hours.” That seems like a contradiction.
Maybe for a busy home chef without a commercial-sized refrigerator, the editors decided two days was the maximum amount of time to bother macerating the fruit. But for whatever reason the change was made, I think an explanation for not macerating the fruit “for a few days” in the recipe would have been a welcome addition somewhere in the text.
