There’s something about the British Summer and strawberries. Although you can get them all-year round; from either USA or Spain etc. and at sometimes exorbitant prices when they’re not in season over here, it’s the home-grown ones that seem to taste the best.

Strawberries. Quintessentially British.

Some people like them with dairy full-cream. And some really like them served with pure white vanilla ice-cream. Personally, I like’em on their own, just like that. Overly ripe and melty in your mouth.
They’re delicious!
I do find it annoying when the little seeds sometimes get stuck in your teeth though …
