Make the most of strawberries
Strawberries are making their way in the summer menus, so get ready to eat them dipped in chocolate, smothered in cream, dropped in champagne or simply eaten fresh. What's more - they can add to your beauty and health too!
Neil Nugent, executive chef of product development at Morrisons, a chain of supermarkets in Britain, provides his top five ways to make the most of your strawberries this summer, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
* Try dipping in a good balsamic vinegar. It's a perfect appetiser.
* Serve whole with shaved parmesan cheese, a kind of Italian extra-hard cheeses. The salty cheese goes perfectly with the strawberries to create a sweet fragrant flavour.
* Try on a skewer-rub with a little olive oil, then barbeque quickly over hot coals and then serve with freshly ground black pepper
* Strawberries are perfect for smoothies with a little yoghurt, banana and orange juice.
* Crush strawberries using a fork with a little sugar and freshly chopped mint. This is delicious served with vanilla ice cream
