Description

This easy Glossy Crimson Coulis strawberry puree is a quick, wholesome, and family-friendly recipe that elevates any meal with its vibrant hue and velvety smooth texture. Perfect for breakfast or dessert, this versatile coulis is simple to prepare and customize.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, washed, hulled, and quartered
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar (or maple syrup for refined sugar-free)
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons water (optional, for thinner consistency)
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Strawberries: Wash 2 cups of fresh strawberries thoroughly, hull them, and then quarter them to ensure even cooking.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, add the prepared strawberries, 0.25 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. If you prefer a thinner coulis, add 2 tablespoons of water now.
  3. Simmer Gently: Place the saucepan over medium-low heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries soften considerably and release their natural juices (about 8-10 minutes). Reduce heat and add more water if the mixture sticks.
  4. Puree to Perfection: Remove the pot from the heat. Use an immersion blender directly in the saucepan or carefully transfer the mixture to a regular blender. Process for 1-2 minutes until you achieve a silky smooth puree with no visible lumps.
  5. Strain (Optional): For an ultra-smooth, luxurious, and seedless finish, press the puree through a fine-mesh sieve using the back of a spoon.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the coulis to cool completely to room temperature before transferring it to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving to meld flavors and allow the coulis to thicken slightly.

Notes

For the most intense flavor, source strawberries during their peak season (late spring through early summer). Frozen strawberries can be used; just thaw them completely first. Store the coulis in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5-7 days.
