What should I do with a pint of fresh raspberries?

Answer 1

Fresh Raspberry Muffins would be delicious!

2 1/4 C. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 T sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 1/4 C. cold milk
1/4 C. oil
1 C. fresh raspberries

Preheat oven to 375 F.

Mix dry ingredients together in medium size bowl.

In a small bowl blend egg, milk, and butter. Add to the dry ingredients and mix just until lumpy.

Add raspberries, stirring gently. Do not overmix. Spoon into greased muffin tins.

Bake for 25-30 minutes. Makes 1 dozen.

Answer 2

Enjoy them while they're fresh! Just rinse them in cool water, then sprinkle a little sugar on them. Toss gently with a spoon and then let them sit for a little while to draw juice!

Or use them instead of strawberries with shortcake. Or serve them on vanilla ice cream.

If you're looking for something a little more creative, then make a Raspberry Roll-up: Bake a jelly roll sponge cake. After the rolled up cake is cool, spread it with Cool Whip and then put the washed raspberries on it. Sprinkle with some powdered sugar. Roll it up (Any berries that fall out of the roll are a treat for the Cook!) and put a little more Cool Whip on the outside. I always keep a few of the raspberries to put on the top of the Roll Up.

Enjoy!

Answer 3

Raspberry Vinegar

2 to 2 1/2 c. raspberries, lightly crushed
2 Tbsp. sugar or honey
2 c. red wine vinegar

Combine ingredients in the top of a stainless steel double boiler. Place over boiling water. Turn heat down and cook over simmering water for 10 minutes. Pour mixture into a screw top jar
and let it set for three weeks. Strain the mixture to remove berries. If the mixture appears cloudy, strain it through a coffee filter. Pour it into sterilized bottles


Wonderful for summer salads
