As a child, I grew my own strawberries and would savor the juiciness of the fresh berries. Now that I live in a typical tiny New York City apartment (with no space for a garden), I rely on the farmer’s market to get my fresh strawberry fix. I love fresh strawberries because they are bursting with flavor, have the perfect red color, and are beyond juicy. Apart from eating them fresh from the pint, there is no better way to let these berries shine than by making them the focal point of a dish. Eaton Mess is the perfect way to highlight the berries because of its simplicity. Just three components create an unparalleled dish: flavorful strawberries, luscious whipped cream, and decadent meringues.
