A little balsamic vinegar and a few grinds of black pepper bring out the sweetness of ripe strawberries.
Ingredients:
2 cups sliced, hulled strawberries (from about 1 pound berries)
1/4 cup sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons good-quality balsamic vinegar
freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Place the strawberries and sugar in a food processor and pulse just until the mixture is finely chopped and juicy but still chunky; you don't want a smooth purée. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the balsamic vinegar and a few grinds of pepper.
2. Spoon the mixture into ice pop molds and insert sticks. Freeze until firm, at least 6 hours or up to 1 week.
3. To unmold the pops, run hot water over the outsides of the molds for a few seconds, then gently pull the sticks.
