There is a Strawberry Festival going on over at Blessed Among Men. Suzanne asked what our favorite recipes are for strawberries. Every year we pick about 6-8 "flats" of strawberries. I make strawberry jam out of about half of the strawberries. The other half is mostly for freezing. To freeze strawberries we slice them, add some sugar to make a syrup and then freeze them in about 2-cup portions. Yummy for ice cream, shortcake (it’s heavenly in the winter!!!) and of course smoothies or strawberry milkshakes.
This year we are going to try the Dunsmore Family Farm in Mora, MN. This is the first year they will be open for strawberries. If the strawberries are anything like their farm-fresh eggs, I know we’ll be happy with the results :).
