Ingredients

2 (10-ounce) boxes frozen raspberries in heavy syrup, thawed
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 1/4 cups whole milk
2 large egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chilled heavy cream

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Purée raspberries and syrup with lemon juice in a food processor, then force through a sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on and discarding solids.

    Step 2

    Whisk together sugar and cornstarch in a bowl, then whisk in milk, yolks, and a pinch of salt. Cook custard in a 2 1/2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, whisking, until it just reaches a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, whisking, 1 minute. (Custard will look curdled.) Pour custard through a fine sieve into a bowl, then stir in vanilla and cool, stirring occasionally.

    Stir berry purée and cream into custard and chill, covered, until cold, at least 2 hours.

    Step 4
