Notes
- Storage: Store cut strawberries in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. For whole strawberries, line the bottom of the container with a piece of paper towel to absorb moisture.
- Tips:
- Dry strawberries well. Drain them for a few minutes and transfer them to a kitchen towel to absorb excess moisture. Blot gently and let them air dry. You can also run the strawberries through a salad spinner to remove any water and then air dry.
- Stabilize for safety. Stabilize the cutting board on your counter by placing a damp kitchen towel or paper towel underneath. This will prevent it from slipping and twisting while you cut.
