Raspberry Ingredients
Method
Raspberry Directions
- 1
Prepare the Raspberries
Rinse the fresh raspberries under cold water to remove any dirt or residue. Gently pat them dry with a paper towel.
- 2
Make the Raspberry Syrup
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed raspberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and water. Stir gently to combine.
- 3
Cook the Mixture
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the raspberries break down.
- 4
Thicken the Syrup
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a few tablespoons of cold water to create a slurry. Gradually add this slurry to the simmering raspberry mixture while stirring continuously. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the syrup thickens to your desired consistency.
- 5
Add Vanilla
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the syrup to cool slightly.
- 6
Serve or Store
Use the raspberry syrup immediately over desserts, pancakes, or yogurt, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
