Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh raspberries
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Simmer the Berries: In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries and sugar. Place the pan over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. Cook for about 5 minutes until the berries have softened and released their juices.
  2. Blend the Mixture: Remove the pan from heat. Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, carefully puree the raspberry mixture until smooth.
  3. Strain the Coulis: Pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl to remove the seeds, pressing with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible.
  4. Add Lemon Juice: Stir in the fresh lemon juice to brighten the flavor and balance the sweetness.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the coulis to cool to room temperature before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Notes

  • Use fresh or frozen raspberries if fresh are not available, but thaw frozen berries before cooking.
  • Adjust sugar to taste depending on the sweetness of your berries.
  • The coulis can be strained through cheesecloth if a finer texture is desired.
  • This sauce is perfect for drizzling over desserts like panna cotta, cheesecake, or ice cream.
  • To make a vegan or dairy-free topping, the coulis pairs excellently with coconut yogurt or sorbet.
