Ingredients
fresh raspberries
2 cups
granulated sugar
3 to 4 tablespoons, to taste
honey
1 to 2 tablespoons, to taste
potato starch or cornstarch
3 tablespoons
cold water
3 tablespoons
Instructions
1
Prepare the raspberries
Rinse the raspberries under cool water and pat dry. Transfer to a mixing bowl and mash with a fork or potato masher until broken down but still slightly chunky.
2
Sweeten the fruit
Add the sugar and honey to the mashed raspberries. Stir well until the sugar dissolves. Taste and adjust sweetness to your preference.
3
Mix the starch slurry
In a small bowl, combine the starch with the cold water. Stir until completely smooth with no lumps.
4
Combine and steam
Pour the starch mixture into the raspberry mixture and stir until evenly combined. Transfer to a heat-safe bowl orramekin. Place in a steamer and steam over medium-high heat for 15 minutes until set and slightly translucent.
5
Serve warm
Remove from the steamer and let cool for a few minutes. Serve warm as is, or garnish with fresh raspberries, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
