Raspberry Sauce
Description
The Raspberry Sauce recipe starts by cooking frozen unsweetened raspberries until they begin to break down. Adding sugar and seedless raspberry jam increases sweetness and deepens the fruity flavor. A cornstarch slurry thickens the sauce to a smooth consistency after simmering briefly. Cooling the sauce completes the preparation.
The sauce delivers a balance of natural tartness from raspberries and sweetness from sugar and jam. Its texture is smooth and pourable with some texture from seeds, which can be removed by straining after cooling for a smoother texture. This versatile sauce complements a variety of desserts, from cheesecakes to pancakes or ice cream.
The recipe yields a quantity suitable for serving a crowd but can be scaled down easily by halving the ingredients. It keeps well refrigerated and can be stored for later use.
Ingredients
- 4 cups raspberries unsweetened, frozen
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water cold
Instructions
- Place the raspberries in a medium pot over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes or until raspberries are thawed and starting to break down.
- Add the sugar and jam and bring to a simmer. Cook for 3 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water until smooth. Add the cornstarch to the raspberry mixture and cook for 1 minute or until sauce has thickened. Cool, then enjoy!
Notes
- To remove raspberry seeds, let the sauce cool slightly and strain through a fine sieve before serving or storing.
- The recipe produces enough sauce for multiple servings but can be halved for smaller quantities.
