Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- Simmer the raspberries: In a medium saucepan, combine the raspberries and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries begin to break down and release their juices, about 5-7 minutes.
- Blend until smooth: Remove the saucepan from the heat. Add the lemon juice, then carefully blend the mixture using an immersion blender until smooth. Alternatively, transfer to a regular blender and puree until smooth.
- Strain the coulis: For an extra smooth texture, strain the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds, pressing with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible.
- Cool and serve: Allow the coulis to cool before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Notes
- Use fresh or frozen raspberries depending on availability; adjust cooking time slightly if using frozen.
- Adjust sugar quantity according to the sweetness of your raspberries and personal taste preference.
- Raspberry coulis pairs beautifully with cheesecake, vanilla ice cream, panna cotta, and pancakes.
- Make ahead and refrigerate to save time when preparing desserts.
