Instructions

Notes

  • Can I strain the seeds? Yes, if you’d like you can strain the raspberry seeds. If you want a completely smooth sauce, don’t worry about holding back raspberries to add in at the end. Add them all at the beginning, then strain out the seeds through a fine mesh sieve after you make the sauce.
  • The calories shown are based on the recipe serving 10, with 1 serving being 1/10 of the sauce. Since different brands of ingredients have different nutritional information, the calories shown are just an estimate. **We are not dietitians and recommend you seek a nutritionist for exact nutritional information. The information in the nutrition box are calculated through a program and there is room for error. If you need an accurate count, I recommend running the ingredients through your favorite nutrition calculator.**
  • Reduce the sugar. I've made this with 1/2 cup of sugar successfully.
  • Add lemon. Lemon and raspberries go so well together. Use fresh lemon juice instead of water in the cornstarch slurry for a little bit of an acidic tang.
  • Storage Instructions:  Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • Can you freeze this sauce? Yes. This sauce freezes well. Store for up to 8 weeks in a freezer-safe container.
  • Can I strain the seeds? Yes, if you’d like you can strain the raspberry seeds. If you want a completely smooth sauce, don’t worry about holding back raspberries to add in at the end. Add them all at the beginning, then strain out the seeds through a fine mesh sieve after you make the sauce.
