Warm Strawberries In Strawberry Sauce For Ice Cream Recipes

SUPREME STRAWBERRY TOPPING

Steps:

• Wash strawberries and remove stems; cut large berries in half or roughly chop them.
• Combine strawberries, sugar, and vanilla in a saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. The mixture will sizzle for a while, but then juice will begin to form. Continue stirring; mash a few strawberries with a wooden spoon or heat-proof spatula to help produce the syrup. Cook until sauce thickens, about 15 minutes.
• Remove from heat. In a blender, puree about 1/3 of the sauce, then mix back into remaining topping. Store in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Combine 1 lb strawberries, wine, sugar, lemon juice, orange zest, orange juice, and star anise in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Remove from the heat, cover, and let rest for at least 10 minutes.
• Remove the star anise and transfer the mixture to a blender. Blend until smooth.
• Place a fine mesh strainer over a bowl, and using a rubber spatula, press the puree through the strainer. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• When ready to serve, pour the sauce into a medium size saucepan. Bring it back to the boil over medium heat. Lower the heat, and simmer until it thicken slightly - about 3 - 4 minutes. Gently stir in the remaining 1/2 lb hulled and quartered strawberries and cook just until the strawberries are heated through (about 3 minutes). They should still be firm.
• Serve the warm strawberry sauce over a generous scoop of ice cream.
