Time 55m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 cups mixed raspberries and blueberries
2 to 3 tablespoons sugar
Zest of 1/2 lemon and juice of 1 lemon

Steps:

  • Combine the berries, sugar, lemon zest and juice in a medium saucepan set over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook until the berries burst and the liquid starts to thicken, about 5 minutes.
  • Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, forcing the berries through by pushing and scraping with a rubber spatula. The more you force through, the thicker the sauce will be (the pulp closest to the seeds contains the most pectin, which is a natural thickener). Let cool completely and store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
