Strawberry Gastrique
Quick & Dirty
I’m short on time, energy, and attention. But strawberry season is almost over and I wanted to share this while there are still good berries available.
A gastrique is a sweet, vinegar-based sauce. It’s marvelous on meats including chicken (which I originally made this for) and pork (which I had it on tonight.).
Strawberry Gastrique3/4 c white wine
3/4 c balsamic vinegar
3/4 c sugar
1 1/2 c strawberries
1/4 tsp saltCombine all ingredients in a small sauce pan and simmer until reduced by 2/3. Blend until smooth. If you wish, you can then force the mixture through a sieve to remove any seeds.
