Raspberry Sauce
Description
This Raspberry Sauce recipe combines thawed raspberries with a mixture of sugar, water, and cornstarch, which acts as a thickener. The ingredients are cooked together over medium heat, stirring continuously until the mixture reaches a boil and then cooking for an additional minute to thicken.
After cooking, the sauce is pressed through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds, resulting in a smooth, glossy sauce. It can be served warm or chilled depending on preference and use.
The bright natural flavor of raspberries is balanced by the sweetness from sugar, while the cornstarch ensures a desirable consistency for spooning or drizzling. This sauce pairs well with desserts, pancakes, ice cream, or as an accent for various dishes.
Storing the sauce in a sealed container in the refrigerator extends its freshness for about one week. Using fresh raspberries instead of frozen is also an option, and the recipe yields roughly one cup, with about four servings.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
- 3 tablespoon sugar
- 1/3 cup water
- 12 ounces raspberries thawed, frozen
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the cornstarch, sugar and water. Add the raspberries and cook over medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture boils. Once boiling, cook and stir for one additional minute.
- Strain the sauce through a fine mesh sieve placed over a bowl to remove seeds. The sauce can be served warm or cold. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Notes
- This recipe yields approximately one cup of raspberry sauce, which serves about four portions.
- Fresh raspberries may be used interchangeably with frozen raspberries if available.
- Store the sauce in a sealed container or mason jar refrigerated for up to one week.
