How to Make Strawberry Panachee

  1. Hull 1 pound of fresh strawberries, reserving approximately 1 1/4 cups of the tops and bottoms.
  2. Slice the remaining strawberry centers and set aside.
  3. Combine the reserved strawberry tops/bottoms and 1/4 cup of strawberry jam in a food processor. Puree until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the sliced strawberry centers into the puree.
  5. Cover the puree with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to a few hours).
  6. While the puree chills, coarsely crush 6 ounces of your favorite cookies (e.g., shortbread, biscotti) in a zip-top bag.
  7. Divide the crushed cookies evenly among four glasses or dessert bowls.
  8. Spoon approximately 1/2 of the chilled strawberry mixture over the cookie crumbs in each bowl.
  9. Stir 1 cup of crème fraîche until smooth and spoon about 1/3 cup over the berries in each bowl.
  10. Add the remaining strawberry mixture on top.
  11. Garnish each serving with a dollop of remaining crème fraîche and a fresh sprig of mint.
