Strawberry sauce

Strawberry sauce is a culinary sauce and coulis prepared using strawberries as the main ingredient.[1] It is typically used as a dessert sauce, although it can also be used on savory dishes.[2] Simple versions can be prepared using blended, macerated, or crushed strawberries and sugar, along with some cornstarch as a thickener.[3][4] This simple mixture can be cooked to marry the ingredient flavors and to enable the cornstarch to thicken if used.[3] Lemon juice is also sometimes used as an ingredient.[5] Fresh or frozen strawberries can be used in its preparation.[6]
