Strawberry Sauce


After having such good luck with my blueberry sauce, I thought I would try out America's Test Kitchen strawberry sauce.  Here's my adaptation of their recipe below.  This sauce would be great on regular oatmeal or baked oatmeal, as I initially intended it to be for.  However, just like the blueberry sauce, I think it'd be great on a number of different foods like ice cream, pound cake, yogurt, pudding, etc. The options are really endless! It's so quick and easy to whip up, I'm sure you'll be finding all type of reasons to make it! 

Strawberry Sauce
Makes about 1 cup

2 cups strawberries, hulled and diced
2 Tbs sugar
pinch salt
2 tsp lemon juice


Put 1 cup of strawberries, the sugar and salt in a bowl and stir until combined.  Let mixture sit for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.  After 30 minutes, transfer strawberries and juices to a small saucepan.  Add additional cup of diced strawberries.  Stir mixture for about 6 minutes, until sauce has thickened.  Add lemon juice and stir.  Pour sauce into a serving bowl and let cool for about an hour before serving.  Enjoy!
