💡Tips

  • Strawberries can be had year-round, but they are not delicious year-round. If you have ever had a strawberry in December, you understand. So, make this wonderful dessert in the fullness of local Strawberry season, to get the most from it.

  • Mixing the Strawberries with a bit of Sugar after cutting them allows them to exude some juice, which makes them all the more delicious.
