Ingredients:
1 pint fresh strawberries, preferably organic
2 tablespoons Aged Balsamic Vinegar*
Premium vanilla ice cream

*if using regular balsamic vinegar, use 2 teaspoons sucanat or 1 teaspoon honey dissolved into 2 tablespoons vinegar

Technique:
Rinse strawberries and pat dry. Cut thinly into 1/8 inch slices. Place in bowl and drizzle with balsamic vinegar; toss gently to coat. Allow to marinate at room temperature for at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Strawberries may be covered and refrigerated at this point for up to 4 hours. Remove from refrigerator and allow to return to room temperature 30 minutes before serving. Serve over vanilla ice cream.

Serves 2.
