Strawberries are just starting to come into season. I have fond memories of my Grandmother’s strawberry patch when I was growing up and eating strawberry shortcake made with strawberries picked fresh that day. It was the BEST!!!
Now when I make strawberry shortcake it looks a little different, but it still tastes wonderful. It really is one of the best summertime desserts.
Strawberries aren’t just for strawberry shortcake or to pair with rhubarb – they are amazing just eaten plain or in salads.
