I was so excited while seing strawberries at the market, and made it into a very tasty syrup, this can made for light or heavy syrup. If it's light syrup, just use ratio 1 : 1 : 1 for the sugar : strawberries : liquid. If heavy syrup you could use ratio 1 : 1 : 1/2.

500 gr fresh strawberries
500 gr granulated sugar
1 whole orange juice
1 tbs orange zest (from 1 whole orange)
1/2 lemon juice
500 ml liquid (water,including the orange juice and lemon juice)
1/4 tsp salt

Cooking Instructions

1

Clean all of your fruits.
2

Cut all the strawberries stems, set aside.
3

Grated one whole orange skin to take the orange zest, and squeeze the juice too. Add 1/2 lemon juice, and fill it with water until 500 ml for the total liquid. If you are going for heavy syrup you only need 250 ml for the liquid.
4

Put your clean strawberries into a pan, add sugar, orange zest, and the liquid inside your pan.
5

Heat it with medium low heat. Let it boil and while boiling push or squeeze your strawberries inside the pan using the potato smasher, just push a little bit to take out the juice little by little, no need to crush your strawberries.
6

Add salt and let it simmer until the thickness that you wished. If you want a bit thick or half heavy, let your syrup reduces its liquid until the thickness that you want. Mine, it takes about 30-45 minutes simmering time.
