to delight the taste buds in this delicious sauce.
Packaged up with Whisker Graphics products
this sauce would make an awesome food gift.
In a large heavy bottom pot add two pounds of strawberries.
That have been washed and trimmed and cut into quarters or
in half depending on their size. To the berries add the juice of
half a lemon and a few peals, two 5" sprigs of rosemary and
a little less than a 1/4 cup of sugar. The amount of sugar depends
on personal taste and how sweet your berries are. Turn the pot
on medium high and stir until the juice of the berries start to run.
Then reduce the heat to low and cook for about an hour.
Occasionally sir the mixture and mash the berries with the back
of a wooden spoon.
The strawberry sauce will thicken nicely once reduced.
Let cool and package into mason jars. This recipe makes about
three cups. Keep tightly covered in the fridge for up to a week.
Although, this stuff probably won't be around
a week. This stuff is equally good on a turkey
burger as it is on vanilla ice cream!!!
It's strawberry sauce meets strawberry catsup.
For gift giving, place in a pretty mason jar and label.
Cute as is but, why not go a little further??
Place the jar in a Bigger Bitt Bag fold over edges.....
embellish with a paper lace doily, tag, antique spoon and a
little bit of Divine Twine. Perfectly delicious and pretty too.
Love the detail on this little spoon. Vintage silverware is the best!
Thanks to Whisker Graphics for having me back as a guest designer
and for all these sweet packaging supplies to play with.
