Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the fresh raspberries under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Whisk in the all-purpose flour to create a roux. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring continuously, until the mixture turns light golden brown.
Slowly pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture thickens.
Add the raspberries to the saucepan and gently mash them with a fork or a wooden spoon to release their juices. Stir well to combine.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and honey. Let the mixture simmer for 2 minutes to blend the flavors.
Season the gravy with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust sweetness or tartness with additional honey if desired.
Strain the gravy through a fine-mesh sieve for a smooth consistency, removing seeds and pulp, if preferred.
Serve the Raspberry Gravy warm over roasted meats, poultry, or as a unique topping for pancakes or waffles.
