Sweet red strawberries, also known as summer crowns, are the essence of summer and a favourite in culinary desserts. Their juicy, sweet flavour and bright colour make them an indispensable ingredient in numerous delicacies.
The possibilities are endless
A classic dessert in which strawberries shine is Strawberry Romanoff. This elegant treat combines marinated strawberries with orange liqueur, whipped cream and a hint of vanilla. The result is a sophisticated balance between sweet and creamy, perfect for a summer evening.
Strawberries are also an essential ingredient in Italian gelato. To make strawberry gelato, start with Fruitlife strawberry puree. This puree is then mixed with a base of milk, cream and sugar. The mixture is gently heated and then cooled before being turned into a silky-smooth ice cream in an ice cream machine. The result is a refreshing, creamy treat that perfectly captures the intense sweetness and aroma of fresh strawberries.
For a more complex twist, combine strawberries with balsamic vinegar and black pepper in a sorbet. The subtle sharpness of the pepper and the deep flavor of the vinegar enhance the natural sweetness of the strawberries, creating a surprising and refreshing dessert.
Sweet red strawberries bring the taste of summer to any dessert creation, whether a simple dish or a sophisticated gelato. They remain an essential ingredient for any chef looking to celebrate the best of the summer season, take a look at www.fruitlife.nl/en/
