News You Can Bruise for 2005 June 2 (entry 0)

(2) Thu Jun 02 2005 11:59 PST Kinds of Sauce: As Kris' and my generic Tom Waits parody goes, "Life just keeps suckin'." However, I have discovered that hot fudge sauce is better if you make it with coconut milk instead of condensed milk. Also, I made a strawberry coulis and it didn't turn out great. Not bad for a first try though.

How did you make the coulis? I have a recipe* for a really good raspberry one made by simmering a lump of frozen raspberries in sugar water for a few minutes, then blending and straining. The recipe says that trick works with other frozen berries, including straw. Dead easy, too.

FTR: 1.5c chunk of berries, 1/2c sugar, 1/2c water, 1t lemon juice. combine, boil, simmer 5, puree, strain, serve cool.

I don't remember but it did involve a food processor, and a strainer, and lemon extract. Specifically I don't remember if I cooked it.
