Dessert
Macerated strawberries with cream
Half an hour in salt, pepper and a little acid draws the juice out of the fruit and makes its own syrup, which is why this needs no sugar and no cooking.

Method
6 steps · 40 minutes
- Hull and quarter the strawberries. Slices give up their juice too fast and collapse.
- Toss them with the erythritol, the salt and a twist of pepper, and leave them at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- The salt is not a garnish. It is what pulls the water out of the fruit, and without it there is no syrup.
- A few drops of balsamic at the twenty-minute mark, no more. It should deepen the fruit rather than announce itself.
- Whip the cream only to the point where it just holds a shape, so it slumps into the juice rather than sitting on it.
- Spoon the syrup over at the table. Combined early, the cream goes pink and thin.
