Let cool until it reaches at least 3°C.
Add the aromatic herb pasta and stir until you obtain a smooth cream.
Fill the Pacojet cup and freeze.
Position the cup in the Pacojet and stir until you obtain the sorbet.
Add the Xanthan, blend and spread the mixture into a small cake mould into ½ cm thickness.
Let the mould stay in the freezer for at least an hour.
Just before serving, cut the sorbet into rectangles (2.5 x 9 cm) and serve.
