This time we are talking about strawberries frozen whole and below I will give you some useful tips that will change a lot your work in the kitchen, especially in terms of healthy and tasty desserts! For many years, after several tests with whole strawberries in the freezer, I gave up the idea - thawed strawberries get flabby, don't hold their texture, nor the intense color etc. But what if we had "partially thawed strawberries"? I use them in desserts or as a cake decoration 15-30 minutes before serving. They thaw easily, yet they still have texture, flavor and color. I successfully tested this method last year on blackberries and raspberries. This year I will freeze strawberries in the same way. They are wonderful as a final decoration on any tart or cake - I just take them straight from the freezer bags, and put them all half an hour before serving the dessert. Children appreciate them a lot, and not only children...

On the other hand, you can use them straight from the freezer all year round to make the simplest and most delicious Strawberry Ice Cream, Sugar-free jam, compote or any dessert with strawberry puree. But for this, I recommend the other method of freezing strawberries, as a puree or cut into pieces.
