Just right, like Goldilocks would say!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Kosher Salt:<\/strong> Just a tiny pinch of kosher salt, and it&#8217;s amazing how it brings out the sweetness and flavor of the strawberries. It&#8217;s like a little magic sprinkle that makes everything taste better.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Strawberries:<\/strong> Fresh and finely diced, they bring the sauce to life with their color and flavor. However, don&#8217;t ya worry if your strawberries are a bit on the softer side, maybe just starting to wilt \u2013 they&#8217;re still packed with berry goodness and perfect for a sauce. You&#8217;ll just have to adjust the sugar amount depending on how sweet your strawberries are.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Water:<\/strong> To blend everything together and get the sauce to the right consistency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-make-strawberry-sauce\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Make_Strawberry_Sauce\"><\/span><strong>How To Make Strawberry Sauce<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Whisk together <\/strong>sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a small saucepan.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add in<\/strong> strawberries and water. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Whisk <\/strong>until combined and all sugar is hydrated.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Heat<\/strong> on medium-high heat until the mixture begins to boil.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Gently crush <\/strong>the strawberries using a whisk, releasing their juices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reduce the heat<\/strong> to medium and let the mixture simmer until it thickens.

Stir gently, and watch it transform to the perfect saucy consistency.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Blend It:<\/strong> For those who want a silkier, smoother sauce, here&#8217;s a trick \u2013 once you&#8217;ve cooked the sauce, take an immersion blender to it. A few quick whirs, and you&#8217;ll have a sauce as smooth as silk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Do the Spoon Test:<\/strong> Not sure if your homemade strawberry sauce is the right thickness? Give it the spoon test. Dip a spoon in, and if the sauce coats the back of it perfectly, you&#8217;ve hit the sweet spot. If it runs off too quickly, simmer a bit longer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-popular-substitutions-amp-additions\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Popular_Substitutions_Additions\"><\/span><strong>Popular Substitutions &amp; Additions<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Maple Twist: <\/strong>For a sauce that whispers autumn (although we&#8217;re nowhere near close to autumn) and has a hint of caramel, try stirring in a bit of maple syrup. It adds a lovely, cozy, rich depth to the mix. Great for drizzling over a warm, fluffy <a href=\"https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/flaky-biscuits-accordion-biscuits\/\">biscuit<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vanilla Swirl: <\/strong>If you want a sweeter and &#8220;candied&#8221; strawberry sauce, a splash of vanilla extract will do the trick. Add just a splash though \u2013 too much vanilla could ruin the sauce. Not kidding, y&#8217;all!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Zesty Lemon:<\/strong> To cut through the sweetness and add a bright, zippy note, squeeze in a little lemon juice. TBH, you can even use lime juice! It adds the same tartness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Berry Bonanza:<\/strong> Why stop at strawberries? Get creative and mix in some raspberries, blueberries, or even blackberries. Each berry brings its own unique touch, creating a symphony of fruity goodness in your sauce.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-description=\"This easy strawberry sauce, or topping whichever you prefer, is ready in 15 - and can be drizzled on top of anything! #strawberry #strawberries #strawberrysauce\" data-pin-title=\"Easy Strawberry Sauce\" src=\"https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/New-Strawberry-Preserves-3-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Closeup of a bowl of freshly made strawberry sauce on a white background.

To reheat, you can warm it up gently on the stove over low heat, stirring occasionally. If you&#8217;re in a hurry or don&#8217;t feel like taking out a saucepan, you can also zap the sauce in the microwave for about 40 seconds until it&#8217;s warm enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-long-will-strawberry-sauce-last-in-the-fridge\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Long_Will_Strawberry_Sauce_Last_In_The_Fridge\"><\/span><strong>How Long Will Strawberry Sauce Last In The Fridge?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This homemade strawberry sauce keeps its charm for up to a week in the fridge.

If you got more sauce than you know what to do with, pour it into a freezer-safe bag or container, leaving a bit of room at the top since it&#8217;ll expand a bit, and freeze. It&#8217;ll stay fresh and tasty in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you&#8217;re hankering for that strawberry delight again, just thaw it out in the fridge overnight and reheat using one of the methods above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-description=\"This easy strawberry sauce, or topping whichever you prefer, is ready in 15 - and can be drizzled on top of anything! #strawberry #strawberries #strawberrysauce\" data-pin-title=\"Easy Strawberry Sauce\" src=\"https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/New-Strawberry-Preserves-4-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Overhead shot of a bowl of freshly made strawberry sauce with a spoon on it.

Frozen strawberries are a great substitute when fresh ones aren&#8217;t in season. Keep in mind they might release a bit more water when cooking, so you might need to simmer the sauce for longer.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1710378951750\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>My sauce is too runny. How can I thicken it?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">If your sauce feels a little on the thin side, don&#8217;t panic just yet! Remember that it will naturally thicken up as it cools and spends some time in the fridge. But if you&#8217;re in a hurry or want it even thicker, stir an extra pinch of cornstarch into the simmering sauce. Heat it for a minute or two, and you&#8217;ll see it start to thicken right up.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1710378959279\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Can this sauce be used as a pie filling?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Oh honey, you sure can! If you&#8217;re using it as a pie filling, you might want to thicken it a bit more with cornstarch or jello to prevent it from making the crust soggy. Just make sure to cool the sauce completely before adding it to your pie crust.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-description=\"This easy strawberry sauce, or topping whichever you prefer, is ready in 15 - and can be drizzled on top of anything! #strawberry #strawberries #strawberrysauce\" data-pin-title=\"The Best Strawberry Sauce\" src=\"https:\/\/grandbaby-cakes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/New-Strawberry-Preserves-2-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Strawberry sauce in a clear glass bowl with a spoon by it.

Stir gently, and watch it transform to the perfect saucy consistency.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Blend It:<\/strong> For those who want a silkier, smoother sauce, here&#8217;s a trick \u2013 once you&#8217;ve cooked the sauce, take an immersion blender to it. A few quick whirs, and you&#8217;ll have a sauce as smooth as silk.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Do the Spoon Test:<\/strong> Not sure if your homemade strawberry sauce is the right thickness? Give it the spoon test. Dip a spoon in, and if the sauce coats the back of it perfectly, you&#8217;ve hit the sweet spot.
