Instructions
- Place the strawberries into a blender. Use the puree button to turn them into liquid. Pour into a heavy saucepan and add the lemon juice.
- Cook the pureed strawberries on medium heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring often to prevent burning.
- You can add in sugar during the cooking process to your liking, this all depends on how sweet your strawberries are.
- The puree is done when it thickens up and cooks down to almost a syrup.
- Remove from the heat and let cool.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or until you use it.
