Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 cups sliced strawberries about 1 lb
Instructions
- Add water and sugar to a saucepan on high heat and stir until sugar is dissolved. Heat until boiling.
- Add sliced strawberries. Return mixture to a boil, then lower heat and simmer until strawberry pieces are very soft and shapeless, about 30 minutes.
- Strain liquid into a storage container. You can stir the pulp to release juice but don't press on it. Reserve strawberry pulp for yogurt or baking if desired.
- Refrigerate until used.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Makes about 2 cups, depending on how much water boils out. The resulting syrup can be canned by processing for 10 minutes in a boiling water bath. You will want to double (at least) the recipe to make enough to can.
