Making chocolate covered strawberries can be a great way to use your creative intentions in the kitchen. It's also a great way for family members to join together in a fun activity.
Nearly everyone loves strawberries. By selecting good sources - whether cultivating them yourself or buying from nearby producers or organic co-ops and markets - you can offer the best to your own health and those whom with you share. Plus you'll have the best stuff for making hand dipped chocolate berries.
No one said that a candy bar was that bad for you once in a while. But for a consistently healthful treat, something like chocolate covered strawberries are the way to go. A fresh fruit, especially if you've grown it yourself or have it organically, is always the smart choice. Mixed with a little chocolate and allowed to dry, you have a great offering for kids and adults alike.
Buying a strawberry plant is a pretty easy task if you're anywhere near a gardening center or home store. Many have lots to choose from. From there, you need to have a raised bed of dirt, which is easy to assemble, or a large pot.
Being able to grow strawberries that you can eventually turn into chocolate delicacies can take a bit of patience. Perhaps you may be lucky and start right off the bat with a very healthy and growing plant. Water, light, soil, and plant condition all are factors that may need to be adjusted. Subsequent plantings can take these into account.
Taking the time to sit back and relax away from all the fancy technologies and distractions of today is important. You might think that growing your own strawberries is not that important. But it's a link to times past when life was slower. Using them to concoct a great dessert by dipping them in chocolate is one way to enjoy. In a crisp salad with fruity dressing, or even plain, there are a lot of opportunities to use this as a springboard for more control over your food choices and confidence in your preparations.
