Ingredients:

Serving

1 pint fresh strawberries, cleaned and hulled
3 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tbsp aged balsamic vinegar , plus additional to drizzle
3 fresh basil leaves , torn
6 thinly sliced pieces neutral-flavored bread, spread with unsalted butter and lightly toasted

fresh ground black pepper

Directions:

Chop the strawberries into 1/4-inch dice and add them to a glass or ceramic bowl. Add sugar, balsamic vinegar and torn basil leaves. Gently toss to combine and set aside to macerate for 15 to 20 minutes.
