Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh strawberries
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 5 leaves fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cool running water, then pat them dry with a paper towel.
Hull the strawberries by removing the green stems and leaves, then slice them in half or into quarters, depending on their size.
Place the sliced strawberries into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the strawberries, then sprinkle with the granulated sugar.
Gently toss the strawberries with a spoon or spatula until they are evenly coated with the balsamic vinegar and sugar.
Let the mixture sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the strawberries to release some of their juices.
Divide the strawberries and their juices evenly into serving bowls or dessert glasses.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired, and serve immediately.
