How to Make Portuguese Strawberries In Port Morangos Em Porto

  1. Wash and hull 1 pound of fresh strawberries. Gently slice them in half or quarters, depending on their size.
  2. In a non-reactive bowl (glass or stainless steel), combine the sliced strawberries with 1/2 cup ruby port wine, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. Gently toss the strawberries to coat them evenly in the port wine mixture.
  4. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 3 hours, gently tossing the strawberries every 30 minutes to ensure even maceration.
  5. Before serving, taste and adjust sweetness if needed by adding a touch more sugar. Serve chilled and enjoy the exquisite flavors of Portugal!
