Strawberry Love

It is finally Strawberry season and I am in love.  There are so many delicious treats you can make with these magnificent berries.  I plan on making a lot of different ones over the next few months. Here is a tip that will help keep your berries fresh a little longer.

Fill your sink half full of water and add 1 cup of vinegar about a 10 to 1 ratio. Add the berries and let them sit for 5-10 min.  This vinegar mixture will kill the mold spores that naturally occur on fruit.  Once the berries have been soaking you can rinse them off if you want to but you don’t need to.  Next, place the berries on a towel to dry for later use or just eat them right out of the bowl like I do.
