Freshness and fragrance at the heart of your seasonal creations. Carefully selected by Le Delas' Fruit and Vegetable Workshop, these strawberries are picked at peak ripeness to ensure a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity. This delicate fruit, a staple of spring and summer menus, stands out for its vibrant colour and intense fragrance. Packaged in 500g punnets, they offer a practical solution for discerning professionals, ensuring optimal protection of the fruit and ease of handling in the kitchen or laboratory.
Professional uses, preparation and storage:
► Culinary applications: In patisserie, the strawberry is the centrepiece of strawberry tarts, fruit tarts and light desserts. They are also ideal for making coulis, homemade sorbets or garnishes for breakfast and brunch buffets. In the kitchen, they can add a surprising touch to seasonal salads, paired with fresh basil, black pepper or even a dash of balsamic vinegar to accompany fresh cheeses or certain game birds.
► Preparation: To preserve their texture and flavour, it is advisable to wash the strawberries quickly in cold water without removing the stalks, then dry them gently on a clean cloth before removing the stalks. This technique prevents the fruit from becoming waterlogged.
► Storage: A delicate product that must be stored in a refrigerated environment at a temperature between +4°C and +6°C. It is recommended to take them out a few minutes before serving so that their flavours can fully develop when eaten.
