Strawberry dipping sauces can be made with strawberry jam, fresh strawberries, honey, lemon juice, and cream. They can be served cold or heated for fondue and can include other berries or spices for added complexity. Dairy-free options can use coconut or soy milk.
Traditional strawberry dipping sauces often contain strawberry jam or strawberry jam as the base, along with water, honey, and lemon juice. There are other types of alternative strawberry dipping sauces, such as a raw strawberry dip, which uses fresh strawberries, water, and honey. Creamy strawberry sauces often contain heavy whipped cream, half-and-half, or coconut milk to make a thick, creamy sauce suitable for fondue. Varieties of dipping sauces containing strawberries may use fresh ginger and other spices as well as berries such as raspberries and blueberries to create a more complex sauce.
A common strawberry dipping sauce that often accompanies sweet and savory dishes uses fresh or canned strawberry preserves or jam mixed with a little water, heavy cream, and lemon juice. More often than not, this concoction is left to chill in the refrigerator until it becomes slightly thick and creamy. This type of sauce is often served cold, accompanying foods such as fried shrimp and fresh fruit, as well as common desserts such as cakes or ice cream. For a fondue dipping sauce, the sauce can be heated in a fondue pot or over the stove to a pourable consistency.
Raw Strawberry Dipping Sauce uses fresh strawberries, raw honey or agave nectar, and a little water, all mixed together in a thick, creamy sauce. This type of dipping sauce with strawberries may have a slightly thicker consistency than one with strawberry preserves or strawberry jam. The consistency of a raw dipping sauce can easily be changed by increasing or decreasing the amount of liquid, namely water and honey, used during mixing and processing. Sometimes this type of sauce may contain fresh ginger or other spices to create a spicy sauce with strawberries.
Cream-based strawberry sauces can use fresh strawberries or strawberry jam, often combined with sugar or honey and cream, half-and-half, or milk. A certain type of creamy liquid is used in these types of strawberry dipping sauces, as using water in any proportion can make it too thin. A dairy-free dipping sauce can use coconut milk or soy milk to replace the required dairy in the strawberry cream sauce without sacrificing flavor or texture. Often a strawberry dipping sauce can use other berries, such as blueberries or raspberries, to add complexity to the texture and flavor.
