one good thing about April....

here in Cali strawberries are in season in april. i happen to looooove berries. strawberries right at the top of my list. here a few tips on how to buy and store berries in general.


  • bigger does NOT always mean better 
  • small berries usually mean more flavor
  • look for berries that are shiny bright in color, firm and non bruised
  • wash well in a white vinegar  and water solution [ratio 1:10]  trust me, you will not taste the vinegar
  • the vinegar just kills the mold spores and other bacteria on the surface 
  • strawberries will last almost two weeks without getting soft and moldy
  • try it, it works like magic!
