Strawberry Syrup

INGREDIENTS :

- 1 lb. fresh strawberries
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp salt


Directions :

Step 1 : Wash and hash the strawberries into ¼- inch pieces.
Step 2 : Add the diced strawberries and sugar to a saucepot. Stir and cook over medium heat until the strawberries release their liquid and form a saccharinity in the saucepot.
Step 3 : Let the strawberries poach in the saccharinity, stirring sometimes, until they break down and lose their shape and the saccharinity has thickened to your asked thickness( 5- 10 twinkles). Keep in mind the saccharinity will cake further after cooling.
Step 4 : Remove the saccharinity from the heat and stir in the vanilla excerpt and swab. Let the saccharinity cool. Use the saccharinity as- is, or strain through a line mesh strainer for a clear, smooth saccharinity.
