Cup of Yum
Notes
- Raspberries: This Raspberry Coulis begins with 3 cups of fruit, or about 1 ½ pints of fresh raspberries. See “Recipe FAQ” below for the scoop about frozen berries.
- Powdered sugar: Since you can always add but can’t take away, start with ¼ cup. Blend, strain, mix with lemon juice and add more powdered sugar to taste.
- Yield: This recipe makes 1 cup of Raspberry Coulis, or enough 2-tablespoon servings to jazz up about eight servings of dessert.
- Make ahead: Transfer Raspberry Coulis to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to one week.
