Strawberries are a type of berry. They are grown in warmer climates and make for a delicious and juicy summer treat!
Strawberries are red and range in size from the size of your thumbnail to your entire thumb. The top of strawberries have green âhullsâ which should be removed before eating.
In the US alone, hundreds of different strawberry varieties are grown. Depending on the variety you choose, the shape, colour, and taste of the strawberry will differ. Typically, smaller berries taste more intense, while larger strawberries tend to contain more water and so their flavor is slightly diluted.
One cup of whole strawberries has about 46 calories, 1.0g of protein, 11.1g of carbohydrates, 2.9g of fiber, 7.0g of sugar, and 0.4g of fat.
Strawberries are a good source of vitamins C, A, and K. Strawberries are also rich in minerals including calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, and potassium.
Choose brightly coloured strawberries with their hulls intact. Look for dry, plump, and firm berries. Avoid soft, moldy, and shrivelled berries.
Do not wash or hull strawberries until you are ready to eat them. You can store strawberries for 2 to 3 days in your fridge placed on a paper towel in a tightly covered moisture proof container. Â Strawberries can also be frozen whole or in pieces. If you choose to freeze them make sure to wash and hull them before freezing.
First begin by washing the berries. Place them in a large colander and rinse them gently with cool water. Lay the berries in a single layer on a clean kitchen towel or layer of paper towels and pat dry.
Once washed, the strawberries need to be hulled. This means that the inedible green leafy part of the berry needs to be removed. To hull, use a strawberry huller or place the tip of a knife at the base of the hull, insert it gently to remove only the soft white part at the base of the hull, and slowly turn the strawberry. Once you come full circle, the top leafy green part will pop off.
Once washed and hulled, the strawberries are ready to be eaten or used as part of a recipe.
This strawberry tart is sweet and delicious. The creamy filling will leave you wanting more. Enjoy as a dessert or snack.
Prep Time: 25 minutes Cook Time: 15 minutes Yield: 8 - 10 slices
For the Crust
Put all ingredients, with the exception of the oats, into a food processor and blend until smooth.
Note: if using a blender, blend all ingredients with the exception of the flour and oats. Once blended, transfer the contents of the blender to a large mixing bowl and mix the flour in manually.
Using coconut oil, lightly grease a 9 inch pie plate. Pour the batter into the pie plate. Note that the batter will be quite doughy. Little by little, sprinkle the oats over the dough and, using your fingers, press the dough down working it up the sides of the pie plate (the oats will help the dough from sticking to your fingers too much). Keep flattening and smoothing it out until it is evenly spread.
Bake in 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for 12-15 minutes.
For the Filling
Put the coconut butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 10 to 20 seconds or until nice and soft. Transfer to the bowl of your food processor or blender. Rinse the butter beans very well and add them to your food processor or blender. Add the remaining ingredients to your food processor or blender (with the exception of the garnishes) and blend until very smooth.
Note: when squeezing the juice of the lemon, it works best to do it over a very fine strainer so that the seeds do not fall into your batter or use a lemon juicer.
Pour the batter over the prepared pie crust.
Refrigerate for 6-8 hours before serving.
Garnish with fresh strawberries and unsweetened desiccated coconut before serving.
Store leftovers in the fridge. Enjoy!
