    Cherry Coulis Recipe

    Cherry Coulis

    After last week’s Cherry Vinegar recipe, I still had several handfuls of ripe cherries sitting in my refrigerator.  We’ve been having ice cream nightly this time of the year at my house, so I thought this Cherry Coulis would be the perfect accompaniment.  A Coulis (pronounced “coolie”) is simply a thick sauce made from puréed and strained fruit (or vegetables).  With only four ingredients, this coulis recipe is simple, quick and easily adaptable.  If you don’t have cherries right now, you could try strawberries, raspberries or blueberries.

      Sounds refreshing. I have one for you to try. Sounds kind of weird but really good.
      Start with very good quality Vanilla Ice Cream. Drizzle high quality olive oil on top and sprinkle sea salt.
      I tried this at an event I was working at in San Francisco and was blown away.

      Hi Darryl, thanks for the tip. I actually made Olive Oil Gelato a few months ago. I started with a standard vanilla gelato base and then churned in some olive oil right at the last minute. I also finished it off with a sprinkling of Maldon flakey sea salt. The gelato was really delicious; however your version sounds like more of a delicate combination. I am definitely going to give it a try!

      Recipe from ancient times mes it seems! I used Kirsch instead of water – fantastic. Served with Coeur a la cremes. Sublime!
