Prep time: 2 hours
Cook time: about 30
Makes: 4 servings
Description: This is a really fun dish for a dinner party. It is very refreshing in the summer. I of course like it with Mt. Hood strawberries, but will miss out on that when we move away from the northwest. This takes little cook time and the poaching does all the work for you!
Ingredients
2 1/4 cups champagne
1/4 cup plus 3 Tbsp
1 pound fresh strawberries, rinsed, patted dry, trimmed
4 oz crème fraîche
4 oz mascarpone cheese

Ingredients
2 1/4 cups champagne
1/4 cup plus 3 Tbsp

1. Combine the champagne and 1/4 cup of sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring the champagne to a boil over medium-high heat.
2. Place the strawberries in a medium bowl.
3. Once the champagne has come to a boil, pour it over the strawberries ensuring the strawberries are covered completely.
4. Allow the champagne to cool, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. The strawberries will keep up to 2 days in the refrigerator.
5. In a small bowl, whisk the crème fraîche, mascarpone and remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar to blend.
