I love this recipe! It is from the "Frugal Gourmet Whole Family Cookbook" by Jeff Smith. I've made this simple recipe for many years. People are always impressed but... I never tell them how easy it is to make. Some recipes are best kept secret. But I will share this one...

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 pint ripe strawberry
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Directions

1
Hull the strawberries and cut them into quarters lengthwise.
2
Place in a bowl and toss with the vinegar and sugar.
3
Cover and allow to rest on the counter for about an hour so that the berries will "juice" then chill in the fridge for another hour.
4
Toss again before serving.
5
(I like a little more vinegar sprinkled on before serving but do this to your own taste.
6
I should mention that these strawberries do not keep well so they should be prepared and eaten the same day. If made more than a few hours ahead of time they are mushy and texturally unappealing. Just thought I should mention that.

I received a gift basket of organic fruit which included strawberries and I wanted to find a recipe that is simiple, quick and delicious. This really fits the bill. P.S. (as in Post Script not Pot Scubber): It's taken me 15 minutes to write this review because I stop every two words and eat more strawberries. Thank you Potsie for posting this totally yummy recipe!
