Instructions

  • Prep the berries. Gently wash and dry the strawberries. Remove the hulls and green tops with a small paring knife.
  • Freeze on baking sheet until fully frozen. Spread berries in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Berries need to be very hard before proceeding.

  • Store. Freeze for up to 6 months.
