Instructions

1

<p>Primeiramente, prepare as frutas. Lave delicadamente os morangos, retire os cabinhos e corte-os ao meio ou em quatro, dependendo do tamanho. Em seguida, lave as cerejas e retire os caroços, se preferir. É crucial que as frutas estejam secas para absorver os temperos.</p>

2

<p>In simple terms, the next step is to flavor the sugar. In a mortar, lightly crush the coriander seeds to release their aroma. Mix the crushed coriander seeds with the brown sugar in a small bowl. Make sure the mixture is homogeneous.</p>

3

<p>The professional technique is to ensure an even distribution of flavors. In a large bowl, combine the cut strawberries and pitted cherries. Add fresh lemon zest over the fruits. Stir gently to incorporate the citrus aroma.</p>

4

<p>Finally, sprinkle the brown sugar and cilantro mixture over the fruits. Mix everything carefully, ensuring that each piece of fruit is coated. Let the salad rest for at least 10-15 minutes at room temperature before serving so that the flavors harmonize. This allows the sugar to dissolve slightly.</p>

Chef Tips

- Toste levemente as sementes de coentro inteiras em frigideira seca por 1 minuto antes de pilar para despertar os aromas - Retire os caroços das cerejas utilizando um descaroçador próprio ou canudo firme para manter o fruto inteiro e estético - Sirva a salada logo após o tempo de maceração para que as frutas não percam a consistência firme e crocante

Variations

- Adicione 1 colher de sopa de vinagre balsâmico envelhecido de boa qualidade para aprofundar as notas de caramelo das frutas - Incorpore folhas frescas de manjericão roxo ou hortelã picada para um contraste cromático e herbáceo sofisticado - Sirva as frutas maceradas sobre uma generosa fatia de queijo brie morno ou com sorbet caseiro de limão

Substitutions

- As cerejas frescas podem ser substituídas por amoras frescas, mirtilos inteiros ou framboesas frescas delicadas - O açúcar mascavo pode ser trocado por açúcar demerara, mel de flor de laranjeira ou calda de agave pura - O limão-siciliano pode ser substituído por raspas finas de laranja-baia ou casca de tangerina fresca

How to Store

Store the fruit salad in a tightly closed glass container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. As time passes, the fruits release more perfumed reddish syrup, ideal for drizzling over pancakes or yogurts at breakfast.

Can You Freeze It?

It is not recommended to freeze the fresh salad, as thawed strawberries and cherries soften and release excess liquid. If necessary, freeze the fruits with the syrup to use in the preparation of smoothies or compotes.

What to Serve With

Perfectly accompanies a scoop of artisanal vanilla ice cream, fresh whipped cream, mascarpone cream, or slices of plain cake. As a liquid pairing, serve with chilled moscato sparkling wine or white peach tea.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do coriander seeds taste the same as coriander leaves?

No, the seeds have a completely different flavor from the leaves, presenting a citrusy, sweet, and woody aroma similar to orange peel.

Can I use maraschino cherries?

Do not use canned cherries with food coloring; use natural fresh cherries to get fresh acidity and meaty consistency.

How to macerate the fruits correctly?

Gently mix the sugar with the zest and mashed seeds into the cut fruits and let it rest at room temperature for 15 minutes.

Can I make the recipe without brown sugar?

Yes, brown sugar can be omitted if the fruits are very ripe and sweet, using only the lemon zest and crushed cilantro.
