Raspberry

Fruit

Raspberry

Raspberry is a hollow aggregate berry that leaves its core on the plant—sweet-tart, intensely aromatic, fragile. Red is common; golden and black types exist. Eat fresh, cook into coulis and jam, or freeze. Avoid washing until service if possible. Heat and sugar make classic preserves; raw berries love cream and chocolate.

History

Raspberry was used as a fruit food in regional diets long before industrial packing and global year-round supply.

Trade, migration, and selection spread distinctive Raspberry types and preparations into new climates and cuisines.

Modern production, storage, and transport made Raspberry a regular purchase far from where it is grown or raised.

Cooks now treat Raspberry as both staple and specialty, with more attention to provenance, variety, and form.
