From breakfast treats (French Toast with Strawberry Syrup) to salads (Strawberry, Burrata, and Arugula Salad), main courses (Hamburger Sliders with Goat Cheese, Strawberries and Bacon), and desserts (Strawberry Creamsicles on a Stick and Strawberry Heart Hand Pies), strawberry lovers will find tantalizing new ways—along with the classics—to make the most of their summer berry bounty.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
James Beard Award–winning chef Graubart (Mastering the Art of Southern Cooking) takes a delightful deep dive into dishes that feature strawberries. She kicks things off with an introduction loaded with strawberry trivia ("Ancient Romans used wild strawberries to treat sore throats and even depression," and Native Americans "steeped leaves and roots into teas that treated gum and internal inflammations") before getting into the recipes, which are organized into three sections: Bright Mornings, Savory Delights, and Sweet Treats. Breakfast dishes often come with berry-infused sides such as strawberry-orange muffins, which are accompanied by a honey-strawberry butter, or sour cream strawberry waffles topped with strawberry syrup. Desserts run the gamut of everyday fare—strawberry-mint sorbet, cupcakes with strawberry frosting—to special occasion-worthy stunners—an extravagant strawberry meringue stack cake and a strawberry-pistachio bundt cake with lemon glaze. Savory options include fish tacos with strawberry salsa, and pork chops with a strawberry-balsamic sauce. To wash it all down, drinks like strawberry lemon-limeade, mezcal-based smoked strawberry smash, or an old-fashioned strawberry milkshake appear throughout. This is perfect for home cooks ready to take the next step beyond strawberry shortcake.
