What are the other options for consuming strawberries?

The strawberry season is quite short and too many fruits ripen at once. Longer storage is not suitable, as they do not last very long fresh. So let’s look at other processing tips.

Strawberry juice:

• 1 kg of strawberries
• 1 liter of water
• 1 kg of crystal sugar
• 1 teaspoon of citric acid

Wash the strawberries, blend and strain through a sieve. Dilute the juice with water and add sugar. Cook over low heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring constantly. Then stir in a teaspoon of citric acid. Collect the foam from the surface and pour the finished juice into bottles or glasses. Allow to cool and then seal.

Strawberry Smoothie:

• 200g of strawberries
• 2 spoons of honey
• 250 ml of unflavored yogurt drink or kefir
• a handful of oatmeal

Mix the flakes, add washed and chopped strawberries, add a yogurt drink or kefir and finally a spoonful of honey. Blend, let cool in the fridge and then serve in a glass garnished with strawberries.

Strawberry jam:

• 1.5 kg of strawberries
• 1 vanilla pod
• 1/2 teaspoon of citric acid
• 600g of granulated sugar

Clean the strawberries, wash and then dry. Place them in a saucepan and cover with sugar. Scrape the vanilla bean onto the strawberries. Boil the mixture while stirring constantly and collect the foam from the surface. Cook until it starts to gel. Towards the end of cooking, stir in the citric acid.

Pour the mixture into clean glasses, close the lids and place them upside down. Leave to cool like this and then store in a dry, dark place.
