Spring just seems to bring out the strawberry lover in all of us! \u00a0We can’t help ourselves, (we are crazy about them), and we’re excited to share our cheery basic for April, Macerated Strawberries!<\/p>\n

Alison and I are amazed when we see shoppers buying pricey little bags and cans of “strawberries in syrup,” especially this time of the year. \u00a0Juicy ripe strawberries are arriving in our markets right now that are well priced!<\/p>\n

Consider buying a few flats of fresh berries for freezer jam, strawberry sauce, and macerated strawberries you can freeze in your own little bags. \u00a0You will feel so good next winter when you sauce fluffy light pancakes, strawberry sundaes, yogurt parfaits, and the most delicious dessert we’ll be sharing on Friday!<\/p>\n

When you macerate<\/b> something, you soften it by soaking it in a liquid, often while you’re cooking<\/b> or preparing food. To macerate<\/b> strawberries, all you have to do is sprinkle sugar on them, which draws out their juices so they become soft and sweet and deliciously saucy.<\/em><\/p>\n
