In pancakes at breakfast, as preserves on bread at lunch, sliced over a salad for dinner and atop shortcake for dessert, the strawberry works overtime!
Very Romantic
The somewhat heart-shaped strawberry is a member of the rose family and a beautiful partner with champagne. No wonder it’s a Valentine’s Day favorite.
Bigger Isn’t Better
The biggest berries aren’t always the best tasting. At the market, look for brightly colored strawberries that are smaller but still plump; their flavor will be more concentrated and delicious.
To Your Health
Bonus! These berries aren’t just delicious. Like other bright-colored fruits and vegetables, strawberries are rich in nutrients. They’re a great source of vitamin C.
