Strawberry Sorbet

It's strawberry season in Georgia!   Who doesn't love strawberry season?🍓  I took my love of fresh picked strawberries to a whole new level this Spring when I carefully packed 50 of them into a backpack and flew them across the country on an airplane to my parent's house. 😅✈️  I was a little nervous about getting them through security and I can tell you from experience now that TSA isn't exactly thrilled about carry on bags filled with fresh fruit.  😬

Why go through all that trouble to fly fresh picked strawberries from Georgia to Ohio, you ask?  The strawberries in Northeast Ohio won't ripen for picking for at least a couple more months, which means that fresh berries in April were quite a treat for the Ohioans.

Leave it to my mom to turn those prized berries into stuffed strawberry waffle supreme.😋  Just proof that my mom is the ultimate creative cook and that there are endless possibilities for a bucket of strawberries.  I usually keep my strawberry recipes simple - a little melted chocolate or some fresh whipped and biscuits but I pretty much love strawberries any way.  

Inspired by my mom's epic strawberry breakfast creation, I decided to branch out and try a new way to enjoy these giant, juicy berries that I so carefully hand selected from the strawberry field last week.  A little sugar, a squeeze of lemon, a dash of salt and a little time is all it took to highlight the natural goodness of this delicious fruit.  If you're a fan of strawberries - you should try this sorbet - it's amazing.  🍧

Making strawberry sorbet has launched me right into summer mode.  Is it time to open the pool yet?
