Cooking Notes

This is fine but you get a much brighter, clearer raspberry flavor by using actual raspberries and it can be done in under 10 minutes. Look for a raspberry sauce or coulis recipe - in general terms, you put raspberries (fresh or frozen), sugar, water, and lemon juice into a pan and bring to a light boil; separately, combine corn starch and water, add to the pan and continue boiling until it coats a spoon. Voila.

This is huge; make a half recipe next time

You can definitely just wing the amounts here - I made a half recipe and used it to drizzle over the chocolate lava cake for two recipe. Definitely worth it to strain out the seeds.

I had only cherry preserves. Used them with a dash of Chambord and the lemon juice. Delicious!

Very quick and easy but not that flavorful. I prefer making this sauce with raspberries, fresh or frozen.

I had no idea it was so easy to make these types of sauces. It's a whole new world out there ! This was delicious and a lovely accent to the Lemon Ricotta Cake. I did not think it was necessary to strain the seeds. The cake and this sauce were a large hit with my discerning dinner guests. : )

Coulis circling Raspberry Hazelnut Tart was colorful and delicious. A snap to make!

This is huge; make a half recipe next time

Used a 10" spring form pan, per other comments, and cooked longer. Also upped lemon zest in both cake and sauce. Very happy with results.
