Are u talking about strawberry preserves? My mother makes this for dessert. You can eat it on its own or serve it with crepes, cheese cake, ice cream, etc. I make it often too because my daughter just loves it! You can also add some rhubarb to it.
Very simple to make. I put frozen strawberries in a saucepot and add some sugar (something like...4 cups berries and 2/3 cup sugar.. depends on how sweet the berries are and how sweet u like it). Cook over low heat until fruit softens. The juices will appear and u can then taste for sweetness. Try not to stir it too much so u don't break up the strawberries.
You can leave the syrup as is or mash a few strawberries that are in it, or you can add a slurry (cornstarch and water) to desired thickness. We just leave it as is.
