Strawberries In Syrup Recipes

HOW TO MAKE CANNED STRAWBERRY SYRUP

Steps:

• 1. Grab some beautiful fresh strawberries. I found these at Sprouts this week for 88 cents a pound. They were super sweet and juicy. You need 6 pounds. Wash them, then cut the green tops of and cut them in half.
• 2. Place them in a large pot and pour 3 cups of sugar and 1/4 C lemon juice over the top. Stir to combine.
• 3. Turn the heat to medium high (closer to high than to medium) and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.
• 4. The sauce will bubble up a lot. Make sure you use a big pan. ???? Keep it at a rolling boil for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally until the syrup has reduced by about half.
• 5. Remove from the heat and skim off any foam. Add 1 Tb butter, 1 tsp vanilla and a dash of salt. Stir to combine.
• 6. Pour the syrup into pint or half pint jars. Wipe the rim with wet paper towel, making sure to remove any syrup that might have splashed onto it. This will help the lids seal properly. Add a lid and a ring to each jar. (Make sure you are using new lids. You can recycle the rings, but the lids need to be new.)
• 7. Place the jars in a water bath canner, fill with hot water, cover and bring to a boil. Allow the water to boil hard for 15 minutes. Carefully remove the jars from the canner and allow them to cool on your counter. The lids make a popping sound when they have sealed properly. You can test them by pressing your finger into the center of each lid and pressing. If the lid gives at all it hasn't sealed. If it is firm, then you are good to go. Jars that haven't sealed should be stored in the fridge and eaten within a week or two.

FRESH STRAWBERRY SYRUP

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch and salt. Stir in strawberries, water and lemon juice until blended. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until mixture is thickened and strawberries are tender, 2-3 minutes.

HOMEMADE FRESH STRAWBERRY SYRUP

Steps:

• Rinse the strawberries, cut off the stem from the top, and slice them in halves. Transfer them in a pan on medium heat.Next add the sugar, lemon juice water to the pan.Let it all come to a boil (uncovered) and then let the syrup simmer on medium heat for 10 minutes until strawberries are very soft. Feel free to use the spoon to mash the strawberries as they become soft. Stir occasionally.Once all of the strawberries are softened, add the vanilla extract and stir. Next, you have a few options: use an immersion blender to blend the strawberries completely, if you want the syrup to be smooth. Or, leave the strawberry chunks from mashing with the spoon.Let the syrup simmer on low for 5 minutes after blending or mashing.
• Once the strawberry thickens up, remove pan from heat and let the syrup cool down completely. Here you may strain it if you want a silky-smooth texture. If the syrup is too thick after cooling down, adjust the liquid, by adding 1 tablespoon (or more if needed) to the syrup, stir, and strain.Store in an airtight-container and keep it refrigerated for up to 2 weeks. Use this fresh homemade strawberry syrup as a topping on pancakes, waffles, or crepes.

STRAWBERRIES WITH LIME & LONG PEPPER SYRUP

Steps:

• Using a vegetable peeler, pare the zest from 1 lime in long strips. Shave away any white pith from the back of the zest (this can make it bitter), then put the zest in a medium pan. Squeeze both of the limes and add the juice to the pan with 3 tbsp water, the sugar and the crushed and whole peppercorns. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves, boil, then take off the heat.
• Spread out the strawberries in a serving dish, then pour over the hot syrup and allow to cool. As this happens, the syrup will become rosy pink. Serve at room temperature with scoops of ice cream.

STRAWBERRIES IN SPICED SYRUP

• In a saucepan, stir together the sugar and water. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 10 minutes, or until it becomes syrupy. Mix in the nutmeg and cinnamon, and remove from the heat. Stir in the vanilla. Allow to cool for a few minutes, then pour over sliced strawberries.

15 MINUTE STRAWBERRY SYRUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Start with three cups of ripe strawberries. Chop off the tops, being very careful not to allow any stems, leaves, or other debris to stick to the fruit.
• Give the berries a very good rinse, and pop them in the small pot with the sugar, water, and lemon juice to start a simple syrup. Sliced strawberries will work well, too.
• Turn on the heat to medium-high and mash the berries as they start to cook.
• Once it reaches a boil, let the syrup boil for five to six minutes.
• While it's boiling, make the slurry of cornstarch and water.
• After the syrup has boiled for five to six minutes and the sugar melts/dissolves, add the cornstarch mix and let it boil another minute.
• The syrup should thicken up by this point. If it has not, let it boil a few more minutes.
• If you think it's still not thick enough, add more slurry and repeat the process. Remember, it doesn't need to be totally thick at this point, it will continue to thicken as it cools.
• You should let it cool to room temperature before serving.
