Categories     Dessert

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 Tablespoon cornstarch
3 Tablespoons (45ml) warm water
1 lb strawberries, hulled and sliced in half (you can use frozen; don't thaw)
zest and juice from 1/2 small lemon (see note)*
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk the cornstarch and water together until all the cornstarch has dissolved. (I just use a fork to mix-very easy.)
  • Place the cornstarch mixture, along with the rest of the ingredients, into a small saucepan over medium heat. Using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, stir the mixture as it cooks. Break up some of the strawberries as you stir.
  • Bring it to a simmer and allow to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. After 5 minutes, remove pan from the heat and allow to cool. The mixture will thicken as it cools.
  • You can serve the sauce warm before it cools completely if desired, or store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Strawberry topping will be thick after refrigeration, so microwave for 15 seconds or warm on the stove to thin out, if desired.

  • Select ripe and sweet strawberries: The quality of your strawberries will greatly impact the flavor of the sauce. Choose strawberries that are ripe, red, and have a sweet aroma.

  • Add sugar to taste: The amount of sugar you add to the sauce will depend on your personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste. You can also use other sweeteners, such as honey or maple syrup.
  • Flavor the sauce with citrus: A squeeze of lemon or lime juice can brighten up the flavor of the sauce. You can also add a bit of orange zest for a citrusy twist.
  • Use the sauce immediately or store it for later: The sauce can be used immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. It can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
