Equipment
- Rubber spatula
- Digital kitchen scale
Ingredients
- 500 g fresh or frozen raspberries thaw if using frozen berries
- 60 g granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
For cupcakes or cake filling (optional)
- 1 ½ tablespoon corn starch
- 2 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Blend the berries using an immersion blender, stand blender, or food processor until smooth.
- Place a fine-mesh strainer over a heavy-bottomed saucepan and sieve the berry puree, pressing with a rubber spatula to remove the seeds and make the sauce extra smooth.
- Add the sugar and lemon juice and cook for around 5 minutes over medium-low heat, depending on how thick you want your sauce to be, or until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Cool down at room temperature and serve. Or, store in a 400ml/14fl oz glass container.
To make cupcakes or cake filling (optional)
- Combine the corn starch and water until slurry forms. Add to the saucepan and mix well to distribute in the berry sauce after it has been cooking for 5 minutes or so.
- Simmer the mixture over medium-low heat for one minute or until thickened. Then, remove from the heat and let it cool down to room temperature before using.
- Or, place a cooled-down raspberry sauce into a piping bag, close it and refrigerate until ready to be used as a filling.
Notes
You'll get approximately 13 oz / 380g of the sauce from this recipe.
1 serving is around 2 tablespoons of the sauce.
To store the sauce you'll need a 14 fl oz / 400ml glass jar.
It will last for up to one week in the fridge. Made with cornstarch, it will last 3-4 days.
You can freeze the sauce for up to 3 months in an air-tight container. However, if you use cornstarch to thicken the sauce, you should not freeze it at all. The cornstarch can’t withstand the freezing and thawing process.
