Raspberry coulis

If you’ve harvested lots of red berries in your garden, you probably still have some in the freezer. I’d encourage you to make red-berry coulis.

You can use it in the morning in your yoghurt, in Christmas logs, in charlottes…

I’m giving the proportions for a kilo of raspberries, because if you’re going to dirty the washing-up, it may as well be for something worthwhile. Make several desserts. If you have too much, make ices and put them back in the freezer. You’ll be very glad to find them when there’s no dessert left in the fridge.

Raspberry coulis

Preparation

Removing the seeds from red berries!

When you eat red-berry desserts, it’s unpleasant to find seeds or pips under your teeth.

If you cook only a little, buy a coulis press/sieve. It’s a sieve with a wooden ball that extracts the juice. You’ll probably find one for around 20 euros.

If you cook a lot, you can buy a real workhorse. I have the Magimix duo, which does citrus press, juicer and smoothie maker. The only downside is the washing-up once you’ve finished! That’s why, when it comes out, I make several desserts: coulis for panna cotta, cheesecake, ice cream, charlotte…

  1. Step 1

    If you have a steam oven, cook the raspberries for 10 minutes at 100 °C in a large perforated dish, not forgetting to put a dish underneath to catch the juice. If you don’t have one, put the raspberries and sugar in a saucepan and cook them, covered, for 10 minutes.

    Tip the raspberries into a smoothie maker or a special red-berry sieve, adding the sugar.

    Set aside as much as you need for coulis and use the rest for other desserts.
