• servings: 6 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

350 grams strawberries (15-18 strawberries or 3/4 lb)

100 grams granulated sugar (1/2 cup)

118 milliliters water (1/2 cup)

1/2 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Remove the core and leaves of the strawberries by hulling with a paring knife or using a melon baller.*

Combine all the berries and water into a blender. Puree.

Pour puree into a fine mesh sieve set over a saucepan. Use a silicone spatula or a spoon to press and work the puree through until only a thick seedy pulp remains. Discard the pulp.

Place the pot over medium heat and add in the sugar and lemon juice. Stir until dissolved.

Bring to a gentle boil and stir occasionally until syrup is thickened and coats the back of a spoon without running off. About 10 minutes from the time you put on the heat to finish.

Allow to cool, pour into airtight container and store in fridge for up to two weeks.*
