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.

This is a unique, gourmet way to serve this fantastic summer fruit! The balsamic vinegar brings out the berries' beautiful color and truly enhances their flavor. Great served with a simple pound cake, over vanilla ice cream, or simply by themselves.
