This is an unusual idea that inspired something I saw several years ago. Once drained, the sweet, interestingly flavored strawberries are delicious to put out as part of a snack spread alongside strong cheese and gluten-free crackers. You could also simply toss them into salads! Macros are based on a 6-person serving.
Chef Tips:
- Thickly slice the strawberries, or else they will lose their shape once drained.
- Don’t allow any longer than one hour of pickling time, as the strawberries will soften too much.
- The hot sauce and the orange zest are optional but offer an interesting flavor kick!
