The
cultivated strawberries we enjoy today began in France with the chance
meeting of two American species; one from North America, the other from
South America. The first strawberry to arrive in France in the early 1600s
was the F. Virginiana, the wild scarlet woodland strawberry that was
found growing along the Eastern United States. A century would
pass before the second American species, F. Chiloensis, would arrive
from South America.
This all began when a French engineer, who was sent to the west coast of South America for a totally different
reason, found and brought back to France a large walnut sized strawberry
that tasted like a pineapple. At first, although the Chilean
strawberry plant thrived, it would not bear any fruit. Then, by
chance, the North American strawberry was planted near the South
American plant. The two strawberry plants met and crossed
naturally to produce a strawberry with the best characteristics of the
two species. This new hybrid was the ancestor of the cultivated
strawberries that have become one of the most popular fruits in the world
today.
Cultivation may
allow us to buy beautiful looking strawberries year round but it is no
guarantee to great taste. But then again we have been
hearing this complaint for centuries. Waverley Root in his book
"Food" tells how as far back as 1560 Bruyerin-Champier, physician to
Henry II of France, complained that "improvements" in strawberries have
to be paid for in decreased flavor. Of course, the only way
to ensure sweet tasting strawberries is to grow them yourself or to pick
them at a local U-Pick strawberry farm. But as spring approaches
and we yearn for signs of warmer days, the delicious Florida
strawberries do give us that first tease of summer (and strawberries are
the symbol of summer). Some of the Florida strawberries are
so good that you may want to just serve them sliced with a little sugar
and cream or creme fraiche.
But if you are more ambitious try some of these delicious recipes. |
