How to Make Balsamic Strawberries Not Heated

  1. Rinse 1 pound of strawberries thoroughly and gently pat them dry with paper towels.
  2. Remove the green hulls from the strawberries and slice them in half.
  3. Place the strawberries in a shallow ceramic or glass dish. Sprinkle 1/4 cup granulated sugar over the strawberries.
  4. Let the strawberries sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to release their juices.
  5. Pour 2 tablespoons of high-quality balsamic vinegar over the strawberries. Let them sit at room temperature for another 15 minutes.
  6. Gently turn the strawberries occasionally to ensure even maceration.
  7. A delicious, light syrup will naturally form as the strawberries sit.
  8. Serve the balsamic strawberries immediately. Garnish with a dollop of mascarpone cheese or whipped cream and a few almond biscotti or crushed meringue cookies.
