An Alternative: Strawberry Puree
Preferring something a little different? Here’s another great method:
After washing the strawberries, slice them thinly.
Place the slices in a saucepan with a little water and simmer until they break down into a smooth puree.
Stir in a small amount of sugar to enhance the flavor.
Let the mixture simmer for about an hour, then let it cool.
Pour the puree into clean plastic bottles and freeze.
This version is perfect for using in smoothies, desserts, or as a base for sauces. It preserves not only the flavor but also the fruit’s rich, velvety texture.
An Easy Way to Enjoy Strawberries Anytime
With these two easy preservation methods, you can skip the store-bought frozen fruit and enjoy strawberries at their best—no matter the season. Sugar, in this case, does more than sweeten; It acts as a mild preservative, extending the shelf life of your favorite fruit naturally.
