Fruit
Strawberry fruit is the market form you buy whole—fragile perfume and seeds on the outer surface. Inspect for bruises and mould; ripeness drives whether it is best raw or cooked. Wash just before use, trim stems or blossom ends, then slice, dice, or cook. Cook only until tender; overcooking collapses texture and dulls aroma.
