Very good however I would cut the pepper back a little bit. The fresh pepper was a little too much.

I too have been doing my strawberries this way for years and I too let them marinate a bit--they're wonderful. Sometimes I don't mention that there's pepper in there until after someone has said he likes it. One hint--if you don't have one of the more expensive balsamics, you can reduce the balsamic you do have till it begins to get syrupy--it will taste wonderful.

What a pleasant surprise. Have been looking at this recipe for a while, kept wanting to try it, but kept forgetting when I had the strawberries. I was so curious why anyone would put a vinegar on a perfectly good strawberry and ruin it LOL So I knew there had to be a reason. Wow, I myself really liked this. I had a really good brand of Balsamic Vinegar and was eager to try it with this. First I just used the vinegar alone to test it out. Wow it is like the vinegar brings out the sweetness of the strawberries. Then I did add the sugar and the pepper, I still liked it, thought maybe I added a little too much pepper, seemed hot, but ya know what, I still liked it! I am going to try this out on company this holiday weekend, boy will they be surprised by the ingredients!! Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to broaden my views. Love that!
