Few sauces are as effortlessly elegant as a smooth, jewel-toned raspberry coulis, and this one comes together with just five pantry-friendly ingredients. Fresh or frozen raspberries are simmered with organic cane sugar, a squeeze of bright lemon juice, and a pinch of salt until the fruit completely breaks down into a glossy, bubbling pool of flavor. Straining out the seeds through a fine-mesh sieve is the move that takes it from rustic compote to something that looks genuinely restaurant-worthy. Because every ingredient here is entirely plant-based, there's no need to scrutinize labels or swap anything out — it's naturally free of dairy, eggs, and animal products from the very start. The finished coulis is pourable, lightly sweet, and just tart enough to cut through rich desserts, making it an ideal drizzle over coconut ice cream, vegan cheesecake, or a simple bowl of fresh fruit. It keeps in the fridge for up to five days, so you can make a batch for six and still have plenty left over for weekday breakfasts or impromptu desserts all week long.

Combine the raspberries, organic cane sugar, lemon juice, water, and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the berries have completely broken down and the mixture is bubbling, about 5–7 minutes.
Set a fine-mesh strainer over a bowl. Pour the raspberry mixture through the strainer and press firmly with the back of a spoon or spatula, working the pulp against the mesh until only dry seeds remain in the strainer. Discard the seeds.
