Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup water

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Instructions
 

In a medium saucepan, combine the halved strawberries, granulated sugar, and water. Stir gently to combine.

    Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer.

      Allow the strawberries to cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until they begin to soften and release their juices.

        Gently mash the strawberries with a fork or potato masher to break up the fruit and release more juice.

          Add the lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine and bring to a boil.

            Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for another 10-15 minutes, until the syrup thickens and coats the back of a spoon.

              Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the syrup cool for a few minutes.

                Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean container to remove the strawberry solids, if desired (this is optional if you prefer a chunky syrup).

                  Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature, then store it in a sealed jar or bottle in the refrigerator.
