BALSAMIC STRAWBERRIES



Balsamic Strawberries image

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.
