Rejuvenate Soft Strawberri­es, and More

-

With strawberry season almost upon us, try this if yours turn a bit mushy before you get a chance to finish them: Move them to a large bowl, taking care not to mash any and leaving an inch between the berries and the bowl’s rim. Cover with ice and pour cool water over the top so the ice is floating. After 20 minutes, the strawberri­es will have a plumper shape and lighter color. This trick works for wilted lettuce too!
