Strawberries With Cream
The perfect cream for Strawberries With Cream: perfectly sweet and fluffy but creamy and velvety. The strawberries are tossed with sugar and a splash of lemon juice for a mouthwatering sweet and tart combo!This combo was made to be enjoyed along a glass of sparkling wine with your lover, I swear.
Ingredients
- 1 lb (450 g) fresh strawberries (cleaned and hulled)
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) freshly-squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tbsp (12 g) white granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) heavy cream (cold)
- 1/4 cup (80 ml) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (or to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare the strawberries. Slice the cleaned and hulled strawberries, add them to a large bowl, and sprinkle them with sugar and lemon juice then mix until combined. Allow to macerate while you make the cream. Do not macerate for longer than 10-15 minutes or the strawberries won't be as firm and crisp anymore.
- Make the cream. Add the cold cream to a medium bowl and use a mixer or a whisk to beat the cream until thickened and slightly fluffy but still creamy (it shouldn't form peaks). Add in the condensed milk and beat again until combined and slightly thicker. The cream should never form or hold peaks, it should simply be thick but still creamy and not fully whipped, the consistency should be similar to that of yogurt.
- Serve. Add the cream mixture to the strawberries and mix together for a strawberries and cream salad or serve the strawberries as they are and top them with spoonfuls of cream for a fancier look (as pictured). Enjoy!
