Easy Homemade Strawberry Coulis Recipe
Description
The coulis is made by processing rinsed, trimmed strawberries together with sugar and lemon juice in a food processor or immersion blender until pureed. The resulting sauce highlights the natural freshness and brightness of the strawberries, balanced by the tang of lemon and sweetening from sugar.
The recipe allows for taste adjustments; less ripe berries may require additional sugar, while overly ripe ones might need more lemon juice to add acidity and balance sweetness. Straining the coulis is optional and can be done to achieve a smoother texture without seeds.
This simple preparation makes a versatile topping that complements a variety of desserts, pancakes, or yogurt, enhancing them with fresh fruit flavor and a touch of tartness.
Ingredients
- 2 c strawberry rinsed and trimmed
- 4 tablespoon sugar granulated white, raw or brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Place all berries in your food processor or a deep, narrow cup meant for your immersion blender. Add sugar and lemon then turn on processor or blender and blend until strawberries are well pureed.
- Taste and add extra lemon juice or sugar to taste if needed. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Notes
- Add more sugar if strawberries are less ripe for balanced sweetness.
- Increase lemon juice if berries are overly ripe to enhance brightness.
- Optional: strain coulis to remove seeds for a smoother texture.
