Everyone loves strawberries, and they remind me of when I was newly adopted and brought for the first time to meet my new grandmother. I was just 4 years old and I was scared of what was going on around me, but for some reason seeing the field of strawberries along the side of the neighbor's home made me feel more safe. It gave me the courage to escape from inside (where the adults had been chatting for hours now) and run outside and eat all those delicious red things. My beautiful white dress was ruined, but my small belly was full.
The simple things in life are what bring us the most joy. The first time I fell in love with strawberries is something will forever be part of me. The recipe I am sharing today with everyone is an early summer dessert that my grandma used to make for me from the first strawberry harvest. This is how summer would start for me, and it's the most magical way of starting the summer. I hope that you give it a try and enjoy it as much as we do.
