Not a new idea, but maybe a reminder of an old favorite to some. Got
some good strawberries at the farmers market last week. Sliced them, sprinkled a tiny bit of sugar over them, let sit for 15 minutes. Then drizzled with a little bit (maybe 2 teaspoons for a pound of berries) of balsamic vinegar. Let sit for an hour. So delicious. -aem |

It is obviously just a matter of personal taste and I am not criticizing. -- James Silverton Potomac, Maryland Email, with obvious alterations: not.jim.silverton.at.verizon.not |

I'm sort of on the fence with it. I can say that the quality of the balsamic makes a huge difference in the taste. Bob has a small bottle of some bazillion-year old high end stuff that is good on them -- a couple drops goes a long way. I like the strawberries when he uses that, but I can take 'em or leave 'em with the regular stuff. --Lin |

It's also delicious on plain baked/roasted chicken, or on top of ice cream. -mickey |

Let sit for an hour. So delicious. I'm determined to go strawberry picking this year, and I have some nice balsamic vinegar that my sil bought for us. I'll have to remember this in June. nancy |

So delicious. -aem After the above treatment, and just before serving, give 'em a grind or two of black pepper. That's how we like them. But, that won't be 'till about mid-June when we can pick our own strawberries. Ross. |
