Sweet Southern Sugared Strawberries (Strawberry Topping) image

This is a family favorite handed down for generations. It is very basic and can be used in Strawberry shortcake, ice cream topping, cheesecake topping, pancake or waffle topping, etc. Be creative with it!

Provided by Jenn from New Orlea

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1m

Yield 2-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

fresh strawberries
granulated sugar

Steps:

  • You will need a tupperware type container with a lid.
  • First, slice as many strawberries as you would like and place them in the container.
  • Then add as much sugar as you wish.
  • The more sugar makes more syrup.
  • I usually add enough to fully coat the strawberries.
  • Now put the lid on the container and tumble the strawberries for a minute so they can get saturated in the sugar.
  • Now refrigerate the container for a couple of hours, and you will have the tastiest, sweetest strawberries in their own syrup.
  • (I usually leave them in the refrigerator over night).

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie with Ginger Crumb Topping image

Use the best, freshest ingredients available to add extra flavor to this twist on classic strawberry-rhubarb pie. This recipe comes from Sam Mogannam and Dabney Gough's "Bi-Rite Market's Eat Good Food."

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
7 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
2 tablespoons ice-cold water, plus more as needed
1 1/2 teaspoons apple-cider vinegar
2 1/2 cups (about 3 large stalks) rhubarb, sliced 1/4-inch-thick on the bias
2 1/2 cups hulled and halved strawberries, quartered if very large
2/3 cup packed light or dark-brown sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons packed dark or light-brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon coarse salt

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Place flour, butter, sugar, and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer. Transfer bowl to freezer for 20 minutes. Remove bowl from freezer and attach to mixer fitted with paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until mixture resembles a coarse meal, about 2 minutes.
  • In a small glass measuring cup, combine ice water and vinegar. With the mixer on low, slowly add just enough water mixture to flour mixture so that it comes together into shaggy clumps. If all the liquid is used and dough still doesn't hold together, add additional cold water, 1 teaspoon at a time. Take care not to overmix.
  • Turn dough out onto a large piece of plastic wrap; shape into a 5-inch disk and wrap. Transfer to refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes and up to 3 days.
  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough into a 12 1/2-inch circle about 1/8-inch thick. Carefully transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Tuck excess dough under edges to create a double thickness and a smooth edge; pinch every 2 inches to create a decorative edge. Transfer to refrigerator to chill for at least 20 minutes.
  • Make the filling: Preheat oven to 350 with a rack set in the center of oven.
  • Place all filling ingredients in a medium bowl; gently toss to combine. Set aside.
  • Make the topping: Place all topping ingredients in a medium bowl. Using a pastry blender or two table knives, cut mixture until the biggest pieces of butter are the size of small peas. Mixture will be dry.
  • Place filling in chilled pie shell and sprinkle with topping. Place pie plate on a large rimmed baking sheet and bake until crust is dark golden and filling is bubbling, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely before serving.

Strawberry Milkshake with Sugar Biscuit Topping image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     beverage

Time 3h25m

Yield s: One 16-ounce milkshake or two 8-ounce milkshakes

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound fresh strawberries
3 tablespoons to 1/4 cup granulated sugar (depending on sweetness of berries)
3 tablespoons strawberry jam
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/4 cup whole milk
10 ounces premium vanilla ice cream
Fresh whole strawberry, for garnish, optional
1/2 Sugar Biscuit, crumbled, for topping, recipe follows
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, plus 4 tablespoons, melted
3/4 cup cold buttermilk
Heavy cream, for brushing
Granulated sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • For the strawberry base: Put the strawberries in a bowl, add the sugar and gently stir to combine. Let the berries sit at room temperature for 30 minutes, until they start to soften and release their juices.
  • Transfer the mixture to a medium nonreactive saucepan, add the jam and cook over medium-high heat until slightly softened. Coarsely mash the berries using a potato masher or the back of a fork and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens to a jam-like consistency, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate until cold and thickened further, at least 2 hours.
  • For the milkshake: Combine the milk and 1/2 cup strawberry base in the blender and blend for 5 seconds. Add the ice cream and blend until smooth, about 10 seconds. Top with more strawberry base, the Sugar Biscuit and a strawberry for garnish, if using.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Using a dough cutter, combine until the ingredients are incorporated. Scatter the cold butter pieces over the top of the flour mixture and continue to combine until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the buttermilk and mix just until the dough begins to come together.
  • Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured counter. Pat the dough into a 10 by 12-inch rectangle about 3/4-inch thick. Use a 3-inch round cutter to cut out the biscuits. Press together the scraps of dough and repeat the process. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper; brush the tops with cream and sprinkle with sugar. Bake the biscuits until lightly golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush the tops with the remaining melted butter. Yield: 8 biscuits.

CHOCOLATE MASCARPONE STUFFED FRENCH TOAST WITH STRAWBERRY TOPPING



CHOCOLATE MASCARPONE STUFFED FRENCH TOAST WITH STRAWBERRY TOPPING image

Categories     Berry     Breakfast

Number Of Ingredients 18

Strawberry Topping
2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
2 tablespoons sugar (use less if your berries are very sweet)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Filling
1/2 cup mascarpone, at room temperature
1 tablespoon heavy cream
1 tablespoon orange zest
1 tablespoon sugar
1 oz semisweet chocolate
French Toast
4 slices day-old challah bread, each about 3/4-inch thick
1 large egg
3/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Topping Combine the berries, sugar and lemon juice in a medium bowl then cover and let macerate at room temperature for 1 hour. Filling Add the chocolate to a small microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30 second bursts on 50% power, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Set aside to cool. Combine the mascarpone, heavy cream, orange zest and sugar in a small bowl. Add the cooled chocolate and stir to incorporate. Bread Take one slice of bread and turn it so the bottom edge is facing up at you. Cut a pocket with a sharp knife, leaving the edges and top of the bread intact. Repeat with each slice of bread, then fill each pocket with about 1/4 of the filling mixture. (You could probably stretch the filling for 5 or 6 pieces of bread if you wanted.) Set a large skillet over medium heat. In a wide, shallow bowl, whisk the egg and milk together. Whisk in the melted butter and vanilla then the flour and salt, mixing until smooth. One at a time, add the filled slices of bread to the mixture and soak for about 30 seconds per side. Let the excess drip off, then transfer to a plate. Repeat for all slices of bread. Spray the heated pan with nonstick cooking spray (you could also use butter if you want). Add the bread to the pan in a single layer and cook until golden and crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining slices of bread. Serve with powdered sugar and strawberry topping.

NEW YORK-STYLE CHEESECAKE WITH A FRESH STRAWBERRY TOPPING RECIPE - (4.5/5)



New York-Style Cheesecake with a Fresh Strawberry Topping Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 18

CRUST:
8 graham crackers
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus additional 1 tablespoon melted butter for greasing pan
FILLING:
2 1/2 pounds cream cheese at room temperature
6 whole eggs, plus 2 egg yolks
1/8 teaspoon table salt
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/3 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
TOPPING:
2 pounds fresh strawberries, cleaned, hulled, and cut lengthwise into thin slices
1/2 cup granulated sugar
pinch table salt
1 cup strawberry jam
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Crust: Break graham crackers into small pieces and transfer to a food processor. Pulse until you have fine, uniform graham cracker crumbs. You should have 1 cup of crumbs. Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 325°F. Combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar in medium bowl; add 5 tablespoons melted butter and toss with fork until evenly moistened. Brush bottom and sides of 9-inch springform pan with most of remaining melted butter, reserving a bit to brush the pan again before putting in the filling. Empty crumbs into springform pan and press evenly into pan bottom. Bake until fragrant and beginning to brown around edges, about 13 minutes. Cool on wire rack while making filling. Filling: Increase oven temperature to 500°F. Cut room temperature cream cheese into small chunks. For easier cutting, you may also cut into chunks before allowing to come to room temperature. In standing mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat cream cheese at medium-low speed to break up and soften slightly, about 1 minute. Scrape beater and bottom and sides of bowl well with rubber spatula; add salt and about half of sugar and beat at medium-low speed until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape bowl; beat in remaining sugar until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape bowl; add sour cream, lemon juice, and vanilla, and beat at low speed until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape bowl; add yolks and beat at medium-low speed until thoroughly combined, about 1 minute. Scrape bowl; add whole eggs two at a time, beating until thoroughly combined, about 1 minute, and scraping bowl between additions. Set springform pan on rimmed baking sheet (to catch any spills if springform pan leaks). Pour filling into cooled crust and bake 10 minutes. Without opening oven door, reduce oven temperature to 200°F and continue to bake until instant-read thermometer inserted into center of cheesecake registers about 150°F, about 1.5 hours. Transfer cake to wire rack and cool 5 minutes; run paring knife between cake and side of springform pan. Cool until barely warm, 2.5 to 3 hours. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold, at least 3 hours. (Cake can be refrigerated up to 4 days.) To un-mold cheesecake, remove sides of pan. Slide thin metal spatula between crust and pan bottom to loosen, then slide cake onto serving plate. Let cheesecake stand at room temperature about 30 minutes before cutting into wedges and serving with strawberry topping. Topping: Toss berries, sugar, and salt in medium bowl; let stand until berries have released juice and sugar has dissolved, about 30 minutes, tossing occasionally to combine. Process jam in food processor until smooth, about 8 seconds; transfer to small saucepan. Bring jam to simmer over medium-high heat; simmer, stirring frequently, until dark and no longer frothy, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice; pour warm liquid over strawberries and stir to combine. Let cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours or up to 12 hours. To serve, spoon a portion of topping over each slice of cheesecake.

Tips:

  • Use fresh strawberries: Fresh strawberries have the best flavor and texture, but you can also use frozen strawberries if you don't have any fresh ones on hand.
  • Rinse the strawberries thoroughly: Before using the strawberries, rinse them thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Hull the strawberries: To hull the strawberries, use a small sharp knife to remove the green hull from the top of each strawberry.
  • Slice the strawberries: Slice the strawberries into thin slices or chop them into small pieces, depending on how you want to use them in your recipe.
  • Sweeten the strawberries: If you want your strawberry topping to be sweeter, you can add sugar, honey, or maple syrup to taste.
  • Add other ingredients: You can also add other ingredients to your strawberry topping, such as lemon juice, vanilla extract, or chopped nuts.
  • Chill the strawberry topping: Before serving, chill the strawberry topping for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Conclusion:

Strawberry topping is a versatile and delicious topping that can be used on a variety of desserts, such as ice cream, pancakes, waffles, and pies. It is also a great way to add a pop of color and flavor to your favorite yogurt or oatmeal. With just a few simple ingredients, you can easily make your own homemade strawberry topping that is sure to impress your friends and family.
