From the kitchen of Stephanie Knewasser

In a small saucepan:

2 c water

1/2 c sugar

Stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved.

Bring to a boil.

Remove from heat, cool.

Add:

1 1/4 c pureed strawberries to cooled simple syrup (sugar water).

Stir.

Pour into freezer safe pie dish, I use Pyrex.

Freeze until firm.

Soak dish in warm water to loosen granita.

Invert on a large cutting board.

Using a sharp knife cut into chunks.

Put chunks in food processor or blender until slushy.

NOTES

  •  Not only is this refreshing on a hot day, it’s heaven when you have a sore throat.
