Strawberries

• The little strawberries, ecstatically juicy essence of strawberry, will spoil you for the large ones.
• Because they are more fragile, I think they are less profitable for growers. I expect tasty strawberries will be increasingly rare.
• A stand in the middle of Eitz Khaim Street in the shouk usually has them in bulk. As soon as you can, wash and taste them. You'll see why a kilo is not too much to buy at a time. they're good with ... but I eat them up as is, and have none left for recipes.
