Make the Most of This Recipe
Substitution
You can use raspberries or a combination of your favorite berries instead of just strawberries in this elegant dessert.
Success
Keep strawberries at their freshest by waiting to wash them gently until just before you hull them. As strawberries absorb water, they begin to lose flavor.
