Balsamic-Strawberry Pops
Makes 4-6I was poking around on Epicurious.com last week and noticed this recipe featured in their sidebar. I was instantly intrigued and knew that I needed to give it a try ASAP. For some reason I had never made pops—now I’m hooked, it couldn’t be simpler! The recipe says that it yields six to eight pops. I used small Dixie Cups as my molds and I only got four pops. Perhaps I didn’t use quite enough strawberries, but even using skinnier molds, I still can’t quite imagine how you would get eight. That being said, I’m not complaining, because they were delicious!
MATERIALS/NEEDS
popsicle molds or small paper cups and craft sticks
level storage space in freezer
INGREDIENTS
2 cups sliced, hulled strawberries (from about 1 pound berries)
1/4 cup sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons good-quality balsamic vinegar
freshly ground black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
Step One: Place the strawberries and sugar in a food processor and pulse just until the mixture is finely chopped and juicy but still chunky; you don’t want a smooth purée. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the balsamic vinegar and a few grinds of pepper.
Step Two: Spoon the mixture into ice popsicle molds or paper cups and insert sticks. Freeze until firm, at least 6 hours or up to 1 week.
Step Three: If using popsicle molds, unmold the pops by running hot water over the outsides of the molds for a few seconds, then gently pulling the sticks. If using paper cups, carefully tear the cup away from the pop and enjoy.
