ingredient of the month STRAWBERRI­ES

One of the simple delights of the summer season: local strawberri­es. Traditiona­lly available in June, this fruit has several sweet varieties that are available throughout the warm months at roadside fruit stands, farmers’ markets and grocery stores. Nutrient-rich and loaded with antioxidan­ts, strawberri­es are one of nature’s healthiest treats, so take the time to enjoy them piled high on shortcakes, baked into muffins and tarts, preserved or simply eaten out of hand.
