Recipe overview
Ingredients needed:
- Strawberries: The star of the sauce! One pound of fresh strawberries are used for this recipe.
- Cornstarch: This is what helps the sauce thicken. Cornstarch is mixed with water and cooked along with the strawberries.
- Sugar: Granulated sugar helps sweeten the strawberries and make this sauce perfectly sweet.
- Lemon juice: A bit of fresh lemon juice adds a pop of fresh favor and balances out the sweetness.
- Strawberry jam: My secret ingredient for adding an extra layer of concentrated strawberry flavor.
This sauce is cooked in a saucepan on the stovetop. It comes together in under 10 minutes.
