Raspberry Coulis help

[Barnowl]

Does anyone have suggestions on the making and storing of raspberry coulis?

Blitz raspberries, icing sugar and a splash of lemon juice.  Strain through a sieve and freeze in portions.  You can vary the sugar to how sharp/sweet you like it.

Thanks Ceres, didn't realise it was that uncomplicated :)

How long does it keep unfrozen? Freezer space is at a premium...

[ceres]

Hmmm, not sure.  In the fridge only a few days I'd think because it's not cooked.

The annual problem - not enough freezer space!

I've been toying with the idea of trying fruit leathers but haven't got round to it yet.

Can't really visualize fruit leather on ice cream  :)

Perhaps runny raspberry jam is the answer...

Work over, have done a little interweb cruise.

This coulis is made with the same ingredients and they say 'once opened store for 21 days / freeze the remainder.'

Wonder if they pasteurise it somehow since I noticed those recipes that use the uncooked approach and mention storage say ' a few days in the fridge', but those that involve syrup and and raspberries brought to a simmer don't seem concerned?

No, that wouldn't work at all!  ;)

The commercial ones must be pasteurised to keep that long.

What about bottling them in sugar syrup and just blitzing a quantity up when you need it?  Or just make the coulis and water-bath/pressure cooker it?
