Wash the strawberries, let them dry on kitchen paper, remove the stems, slice one half, puree one half with a hand blender, add them to a saucepan with the sugar and lemon juice and simmer for about 15 minutes, then remove from the heat and slowly add the apple pectin mixed with a little sugar to the mixture. Let it simmer for another 3 minutes, then remove from the heat. If any foam has formed, skim it off with a tablespoon, stir in the grated lemon zest and the Cointreau (to taste), and fill into sterilized jars, screw on the lids, and cover and leave to cool. Suitable as a spread, for yogurt, strawberry milk, for muesli, or simply for spooning.
