From the Biggest Loser Dessert Cookbook. This recipe serves one but would be easy to increase. Aged balsamic would give the best flavor to this dish. Cooking and preparation time do not include the 30 minute refrigeration time.

BALSAMIC STRAWBERRIES

When I tell my guests that this is dessert, I often have to convince them that it really is acceptable to put vinegar on fresh berries. More than acceptable, actually, it is exquisite. Sweet-tart balsamic vinegar flavored with fruit is a perfect counterpoint to luscious, sweet strawberries. This is especially beautiful with large strawberries or with a combination of strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries.

Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 16-ounce container ripe strawberries, hulled and quartered, or a combination of strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries (about 4 cups)
1/2 cup dark cherry- or raspberry-flavored balsamic vinegar
Whipped cream

Steps:

  • In a medium mixing bowl, place the berries and pour the vinegar over them. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Use a slotted spoon to divide the berries among 4 champagne glasses-let as much or as little vinegar into the glass as desired. Top with a spoonful of whipped cream. Serve cold.
  • Use fresh strawberries in season-remember they are only truly in season locally for about 3 weeks, depending on where you live. Underripe berries are not sweet enough to offset the tart vinegar.

I love this recipe! It is from the "Frugal Gourmet Whole Family Cookbook" by Jeff Smith. I've made this simple recipe for many years. People are always impressed but... I never tell them how easy it is to make. Some recipes are best kept secret. But I will share this one...

Time 2h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pint ripe strawberry
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Hull the strawberries and cut them into quarters lengthwise.
  • Place in a bowl and toss with the vinegar and sugar.
  • Cover and allow to rest on the counter for about an hour so that the berries will "juice" then chill in the fridge for another hour.
  • Toss again before serving.
  • (I like a little more vinegar sprinkled on before serving but do this to your own taste.
  • I should mention that these strawberries do not keep well so they should be prepared and eaten the same day. If made more than a few hours ahead of time they are mushy and texturally unappealing. Just thought I should mention that.
