How much do I love strawberries right now!
If you’ve been to the market or supermarket recently you’ll have noticed the beautiful wafting smell of strawberries everywhere!
Strawberries are a great source of Vitamin C, and relatively rich in potassium. They are also super low in calories, making them a great food if you’re watching your weight.
In the 13th century about five or six species were then known and by the 19th century more than 600 varieties were developed*!!
My favourite recipe for strawberries? Washed, hulled and eaten fresh.
