It's time for fresh strawberries again! I ran across this recipe in Cooking Light. Ingredients:
3 cups halved strawberries |
1/3 cup packed brown sugar |
1/4 cup granulated sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 large eggs |
2 cups whole milk |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/8 teaspoon almond extract |
fresh mint sprig (for garnish) |
Directions:
1. Combine strawberries and brown sugar and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
2. Combine granulated sugar, salt and eggs in a large bowl, stirring well with a whisk.
3. Heat milk in a small, heavy saucepan over medium-high heat to 180°F or until tiny bubbles form around the edge, but do not boil.
4. Gradually add milk to egg mixture, stirring constantly with a whisk.
5. Return milk mixture to pan; cook over medium-low heat for 5 minutes or until slightly thick and mixture coats the back of a spoon (stir constantly).
6. Remove from heat; stir in extracts.
7. Serve warm or chilled over strawberries.
8. Garnish with mint, if desired.
