Strawberries

Instructions

Start with how every many strawberries you want to. Rise them and then cut off the tops.
Put them in a saucepan and cover with water, plus a quarter inch.
Put the saucepan on the stove on medium high heat and bring to a simmer.
Simmer for about 10 to 15 minutes until the strawberries lose their color and become pale, pull off of heat.
Place the fine mesh strainer on top of the measuring cup and pour the mixture into the strainer. Do not press or disturb the strawberries. Let them drain naturally.
Add equal amount sugar and mix till combined.

Notes

Once you put the strawberries in the sauce pan, do not touch them. Messing with them or trying to squeeze extra juice out of them will just make the syrup cloudy.
