Balsamic Strawberries Not Heated Recipes

Steps:

• Thirty minutes to an hour before serving, combine the strawberries, balsamic vinegar, sugar, and pepper in a bowl. Set aside at room temperature.
• Place a serving of the strawberries in a bowl with a scoop of ice cream on top and dust lightly with lemon zest.

Steps:

• Arrange an even layer of strawberry slices on 4 slices of bread. Pile shaved iceberg on top. Place 3 pieces Bacon on top of each. Spread a nice crust-to-crust schmear of the Balsamic Black Pepper Mayo on the remaining slices of bread. Top with another even layer of strawberry slices, right on the mayo. Close sandwiches, slice in half and eat!
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Line a sheet tray with parchment paper overlapping each side by 1 to 2 inches. Place the bacon on the sheet pan. Bake, rotating once, until desired crispiness, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the bacon and let drain on paper towels.
• Whisk together the mayo, balsamic glaze, basil and pepper in a bowl. Season to taste with salt.

Steps:

• Toss strawberries and other berries, if using, with the 1/4 cup sugar, and let sit for 10 minutes or longer. Do not refrigerate.
• Sprinkle with the vinegar; toss gently, then taste and add more sugar or vinegar if necessary. Sprinkle with the pepper, toss again, and serve, garnished with the mint, if you like. Spoon into a glass or bowl, and serve next to cookies or a piece of cake.

Steps:

• Place strawberries in a bowl. Drizzle vinegar over strawberries, and sprinkle with sugar. Stir gently to combine. Cover, and let sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour but not more than 4 hours. Just before serving, grind pepper over berries.

Steps:

• Combine vinegar, 2 teaspoons sugar, and lemon juice in heavy small saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Boil until syrup is reduced to scant 1/4 cup, about 3 minutes. Transfer to small bowl; cool completely. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Combine mascarpone, cream, vanilla, and 2 tablespoons sugar in medium bowl. Whisk until thick soft peaks form. Cover and refrigerate up to 4 hours.
• Combine berries and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar in large bowl; drizzle with balsamic syrup and toss to blend. Let stand 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Divide berries and syrup among 6 goblets. Top with mascarpone mixture.
• *Italian cream cheese, available at Italian markets and many supermarkets.
