Ingredients

1 pt - fresh strawberries
2 tablespoons - honey
1 ½ tablespoons - lemon juice
pinch - sea salt
½ tbsp - cornstarch

Instructions

Place the strawberries, honey, lemon juice, and salt into a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently. Continue simmering for about 10 minutes total, until the strawberries are very soft.
Add the starch slurry (optional for thickening), then cook for about 2 more minutes as the sauce begins to thicken. Remove from the heat and enjoy immediately, or let it cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes and transfer to an airtight container (I usually just stick it in a mason jar). Will last in the fridge for up to 5 days or freezer for 3-4 months.
