things people ask

• How many grams in a tablespoon of strawberry?
  Around 10 g for finely diced or lightly mashed fresh berry. A tablespoon of strawberry puree runs slightly heavier, closer to 12-14 g, because the air is gone. For a strawberry vinaigrette where you whisk 2 tablespoons of mashed berry into oil and balsamic, you're working with about 20 g of fruit per dressing batch.
• What recipes call for strawberries by the tablespoon?
  Single-serving uses, mostly: a spoonful of diced berry over morning yogurt, a tablespoon of macerated strawberry on a stack of pancakes, fruit salsa for one or two tacos, or a cocktail muddle. Strawberry-balsamic glazes for chicken or pork also scale by the tablespoon when you're saucing two portions rather than a full sheet pan.
• Can I freeze strawberries in tablespoon portions?
  Yes, and it's a useful trick. Mash ripe berries, spoon roughly 10 g portions into an ice cube tray, and freeze. Each cube is one tablespoon's worth — drop into smoothies, cocktails, or sparkling water without thawing a whole bag. Label the tray, since strawberry cubes look similar to raspberry or other red-berry cubes.
