STRAWBERRY TOPPING F O R CHEESECAKE
 

INGREDIENTS
Don Carmelo Strawberries in light syrup
Cornstarch + water: You don't need much, but you must dissolve the cornstarch in a little water before using.
This is called a "slurry"; see raspberry cake filling an example. Without mixing with water,
the cornstarch will leave white chunks in your strawberry sauce.
Lemon juice + zest: Keeps the flavor bright. The sauce won't taste like lemon, I promise!
Sugar: Just enough to sweeten the sauce without taking away from the strawberry's natural flavor.
