  • Pour the raspberries into your strainer over some vessel like a bowl or glass measuring cup. Push and work at the pulpy mass to get as much juice through the strainer as you can.
  • Transfer the strained juice back to the sauce pan. Cook briefly over medium heat to re-warm and loosen it up.
  • Mix the cornstarch and water into a slurry, then add it to the raspberries. Stir until it thickens.
