Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh strawberries, as uniformly shaped as possible
Instructions
- Wash and dry your strawberries.
- Cut the strawberries in half.
- Place the flat end on the cutting board. Carefully cut a "V" into the stem of the strawberry.
- Round out the sharp tips of the "V" that you cut out to make the strawberry look like a heart.
Notes
- For best results, use strawberries that have a uniform shape and an even tip so the bottom of the heart will look realistic.
- Smaller strawberries have more flavor and are juicier than larger strawberries.
