From _Self_ magazine, Dec 2008. Ingredients:
2 cups frozen strawberries, thawed |
1 3/4 tablespoons apple dry pectin (available at health food stores) |
2 cups sugar, plus |
2 tablespoons sugar |
3 1/2 tablespoons light corn syrup |
2 teaspoons freshly-squeezed lemon juice |
Directions:
1. Line a rimmed 9x12 baking sheet (which is at least 1/4 deep) with parchment paper.
2. Puree strawberries in blender until smooth. Transfer to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
3. Meanwhile, stir together pectin powder and 3 tbsp sugar. When puree boils, sprinkle powder over puree and stir until it dissolves; boil 2 minutes.
4. Add 1 3/4 c sugar in 3 increments, stirring until it dissolves, then another 15 seconds after each addition.
5. Add corn syrup, stir well, then cook 3 minutes or until slightly thickened.
6. Off heat, add lemon juice and stir well. Pour into lined baking sheet and spread evenly. Allow to cool 2 hours, until set.
7. With a sharp knife, cut into 1 squares. Taking a few pieces at a time, toss in remaining 3 tbsp sugar to coat. Keeps at room temperature in an airtight container up to 1 month.
