Hi Everyone! I will be at the Greenmarket in Union Square tomorrow doing a demo on strawberries. Strawberries are everywhere at the market these days and are at their peak flavor. The demos are meant to be simple, and showcase the freshness of the ingredients.

I am going to do Strawberries with Maple Syrup and Mint tomorrow, and I am very excited. Although this is a simple preparation, the flavors are awesome. I made my own "Strawberry Yogurt" by combining the mixture with some goat milk yogurt from Patches of Star. Here is the recipe:

Strawberries with Maple and Mint

1 pint strawberries, rinsed and hulled
2 tablespoons Maple Syrup
1 sprig fresh mint, thinly sliced

Roughly chop the strawberries or mash them up with a fork. Stir in the maple syrup and mint. Serve as a brunch side dish or to top yogurt and ice cream.
