Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh or frozen berries (such as raspberries, strawberries, or blueberries)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (adjust based on fruit sweetness)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Fruit: If using fresh fruit, wash and hull (if necessary). For frozen fruit, allow it to thaw slightly.
- Cook the Fruit: In a medium saucepan, combine the berries, sugar, lemon juice, and salt. Cook over medium heat for about 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the fruit is soft and releases its juices.
- Blend: Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly. Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
- Strain (optional): For a smoother texture, strain the coulis through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds and pulp.
- Cool and Store: Allow the coulis to cool completely before transferring it to a jar or airtight container. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Notes
- Adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding more or less sugar.
- Feel free to mix different fruits for a unique flavor.
- This coulis can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week or frozen for longer storage.
