Strawberries in Sugar

4 servings

Ingredients

• 500 g ripe strawberries
• 500 g sugar

Instructions

1. Clarify the sugar, remove the pot from the heat, place the neatly picked strawberries in it, spoon the sugar over them, and let stand until the next day.
2. Heat the strawberries, let them stand in the same pot until the following day, and repeat the heating process one more time, without stirring.
3. Once cooled, fill into jars; if the juice still needs to be reduced, boil it briefly, pour it cold over the fruit, and proceed as usual.

Modernized from a treasured 19th-century German cookbook.
