15 MINUTE STRAWBERRY SYRUP RECIPE
Steps:
- Start with three cups of ripe strawberries. Chop off the tops, being very careful not to allow any stems, leaves, or other debris to stick to the fruit.
- Give the berries a very good rinse, and pop them in the small pot with the sugar, water, and lemon juice to start a simple syrup. Sliced strawberries will work well, too.
- Turn on the heat to medium-high and mash the berries as they start to cook.
- Once it reaches a boil, let the syrup boil for five to six minutes.
- While it's boiling, make the slurry of cornstarch and water.
- After the syrup has boiled for five to six minutes and the sugar melts/dissolves, add the cornstarch mix and let it boil another minute.
- The syrup should thicken up by this point. If it has not, let it boil a few more minutes.
- If you think it's still not thick enough, add more slurry and repeat the process. Remember, it doesn't need to be totally thick at this point, it will continue to thicken as it cools.
- You should let it cool to room temperature before serving.

SPICED STRAWBERRY SYRUP ( AND SHRUB RECIPE)
Adapted from a Saveur recipe. It is spicy, but the combination of heat and sweet fruit is ambrosial; use half the spices if you are nervous about the heat level. Save the macerated strawberries to use in smoothies, a sweet fruit salsa for topping ice cream or cake, or use it to make some jam (I put the drained pulp right back into the pan I use to cook the syrup, add a little water, Triple Sec, citrus juice, and cook it down until it's thick and sets when tested on a cold plate). Shrubs are old-time summer drinks made with vinegar, fruit juice, water, and sugar, incredibly refreshing with mild acidity and sweetness. This is NOT a canning recipe! NOTE: A shallow saucepan will evaporate more liquid, but this mixture will foam up and OVERFLOW a shallow pan when brought to a boil, so either keep right on top of it or use a deeper pan.

Steps:
- Using a vegetable peeler, pare the zest from 1 lime in long strips. Shave away any white pith from the back of the zest (this can make it bitter), then put the zest in a medium pan. Squeeze both of the limes and add the juice to the pan with 3 tbsp water, the sugar and the crushed and whole peppercorns. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves, boil, then take off the heat.
- Spread out the strawberries in a serving dish, then pour over the hot syrup and allow to cool. As this happens, the syrup will become rosy pink. Serve at room temperature with scoops of ice cream.
