How to Make Strawberry Sauce?
What To Eat With Strawberry Sauce?
Strawberry sauce is good on just about anything, even (especially?) eating straight from the jar. Some of my favorite sauce companions include serving it warm over pound cake or angel food cake, pouring over over buttermilk pancakes or French Toast, or just even enjoying by the spoonful!
Tips for Making Strawberry Sauce
Strawberry sauce is incredibly easy, but I do have a few tips that will hopefully make the process even simpler for you!
The cornstarch is optional. I love it because it speeds up the process of thickening the sauce and yields a lush, glossy sauce in a matter of minutes. If you leave out the cornstarch, you won’t get the same thick sauce and it will take a lot longer to thicken the everything properly (think closer to 20 minutes rather than 5). This sauce will continue to thicken once it’s finished cooking as it cools. Keep this in mind while judging whether your sauce is finished or not; when you take it off the stovetop it should be a bit thinner than you want the finished product to be. Accidentally cook your sauce too long and make it too thick? No fear, you’re not stuck with strawberry jam! Simply add a Tablespoon or two more water with the heat on low and cook until the water is nicely combined and the sauce is smooth.
