Strawberry Sauce (with Photo)

[farfallina]

Hi everyone

I would like to share strawberry sauce today
I don't know if this is same with the one in your EDC. This is from Italian EDC
I am using it with yogurt, panna cotta and ice cream mostly.


Ingredients:
250g strawberries
150g sugar
25g fresh lemon juice


Preparation:

    Chop strawberries for 5 seconds on Speed 7.

    Add sugar and lemon juice. Cook for 6 minutes at 80°C on Speed 3. (If you think it is needed cook a few more minutes)

Enjoy...

That sounds nice. I think I'll make strawberry swirl icecream

We have a recipe for berry coulis in our EDC farfallina, slightly different quantities but pretty well the same as this one from your Italian book.  I make this and freeze it in small flat packs so that I can break off a piece if I want to decorate a dessert, very handy to have in the freezer.

Hey! Farfallina Congratulation on your second blog. Had a quick look at your new site it looks very nice 

[judydawn]

So if we see a recipe on your pin interest site, we can ask for a conversion farfallina?

EmeraldSue i hope you enjoy it. I like it with icecream too

Judy, freezing is a good idea indeed, thank you.   I will keep that in mind. I often freeze strawberries because in winter I can't find strawberries, (at least not at an acceptable price) I may freeze my sauce instead as you do.

Cornish Cream, thank you so much for noticing my new blog.   I am so happy to hear that you liked it.

As you know Thermomix is an indispensable help in my kitchen and I cook mostly with my Thermie. Nevertheless there have been times that I couldn't use it because I had to use traditional methods for several reasons.
I didn't want to post traditional recipes in a Thermomix blog or forum not to mess with the concept. So I decided to start a second blog to collect and organize those recipes.

I wanted to let you guys know about my new blog in a post but I've been waiting to add some more recipes first. Mostly some award winning ones by mother in law! 

My mother in law is not a chef but surely a great cook. She is the one who gave me my Thermomix as gift although she cooks traditional herself. In past she participated twice a local recipe contest. First year she participated with two recipes and she came first and second! Second year she participated with one recipe and she came first!
I am going to share also those recipes in the new blog. The first one is coming soon. It is a pasta recipe. We already made it together. I am trying to put together photos, writing, translation in three languages at the moment.

Judy, of course you can.  I won't be pinning under the same category with Thermomix though. I wouldn't wish to confuse anyone. I keep my new blog's recipes under a different pinterest board. So I've changed my signature in the forum, I have a very long one now, maybe size does matter
I added web, facebook and pinterest addresses of my both blogs in case someone is interested.

Thanks for all that information farfallina, I didn't actually find your new blog before, I thought CC was talking about the pin interest page.

Your blogs are fantastic, either Thermomix or normal cooking and with the wealth of knowledge at your fingertips it's a great idea to start the new one.  You sound as if you have a wonderful MIL and to have one who loves to cook - well I don't know anything about that as neither of mine ever enjoyed cooking. 

I wish I had more time to wander over and browse your blog plus try many of your wonderful recipes and I thank you for sharing them with us from time to time.

I just realised you are on facebook too farfallina. Lovely.

[farfallina]

Thank you so much girls. 

As a matter of fact, I am also on Google Plus but I couldn't fit all !

You really very well said Judy. "wealth of knowledge"
There are some recipes from our mothers, grandmothers.. We are used that they cook for us. We don't register well enough and they are forgotten..
My granny lived with us, she had a dish that I loved.  She would make it whenever I asked. It might be even a Circassian recipe as my granny's family was from Caucasia. My granny passed away unfortunately some years ago. And the recipe is lost...
While I was writing this I just noticed that I missed my granny so much...

It would be lovely to have our grannies when we were older farfallina, I think we would appreciate them even more than when we were youngsters.

[farfallina]

Judy, this is exactly 100% what I think and feel !!
I wish I'd have the chance to show my appreciation. She was so special to me! It is too late unfortunately.
The thing is when we are young ... I don't want to say we don't care but.. lets say we don't entirely understand or notice some things...
When I think of my granny now I feel a pain in my heart with a some kind of feeling of regret .. feeling like I didn't show her enough how much I loved and appreciated her.

I hardly remember my grandmothers. One died when I was 4 so I really don't remember her. The other when I was 7. I do remember quite a lot about her. They seem to hold a special place in our hearts.

This sauce is really nice. I swirled it through some vanilla icecream, and the kids can't stop eating it as you can see from the photo
Tonight I served it over fruit salad with the strawberry swirl icecream. All the plates were licked clean.

Looks very nice.
I see your love of the colour green is evident by the choice of ice cream container and scoop
