A delightful homemade strawberry sauce perfect for topping pancakes, waffles, or desserts.
Blend the strawberries in a food processor until smooth.
If you prefer a chunkier sauce, pulse the strawberries instead of blending them completely.
Strain the puree through a wire-mesh strainer into a saucepan to remove seeds.
Use a spoon to press the puree through the strainer for maximum yield.
Add sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract to the saucepan and stir to combine.
Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness or acidity to your preference.
Cook over medium heat until the mixture begins to boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Skim off any foam that forms on the surface for a clearer sauce.
Remove from heat and let the sauce cool before serving or storing.
The sauce will thicken slightly as it cools, so don't overcook it.
