This is a wonderful dessert. Sweet and juicy on their own, fresh strawberries take on another flavor dimension with wine being added making this a simple yet elegant special something after the dinner meal.

INGREDIENTS:

 

  • 2 pints Strawberries, (about 1 lb.)

  • 1/2 cup Sugar

  • 2 cups dry Red Wine, such as a Merlot or Zinfandel

  • 1 Vanilla Bean, split in half lengthwise

     

    Preparing the Strawberries:

    1. Hull the strawberries. Then if any have a whie core, cut it away with the tip of a sharp knife. Slice some of the larger berries in half, but leave most of them whole.

    2. Combine all of the berries in glass bowl, sprinkle with the sugar, to taste, and add the wine and vanilla bean. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hour or for up to 24 hours.

    3. Spoon into 6 glass bowls, lightly sprinkle with a little more sugar if desired. Serve the berries cold.

                           VERY DIFFERENT, VERY GOOD.
