Food for Thought // Vanilla Ice Cream with Strawberries and a Balsamic and Syrup Reduction

ice cream with strawberries and balsamic syrup reduction

The last couple of weeks have been a bit of a blur. I've been pretty lazy if I'm being totally honest. I've been spending too much time in my sweatpants, cozied up on the couch. I have been editing a lot of photos, looking at a lot of cookbooks and cooking a ton. This time of year something takes a hold of me and I feel the need to stock the freezer with soups and easy dinners. We are having this strange extended summer here with insanely beautiful fall days. The rain is supposed to show up tomorrow and stay put for a while so I'm going to get up and go today and hold onto the last sunshine and vitamin D of the year. Luckily you can buy ice cream all year round so I don't have to let go of summer altogether. This dessert has become my favorite. It doesn't feel exclusively summery. The rich balsamic and maple syrup add a rich zing to the simple treat. It's insanely good. Rain or shine.

  1. it sounds nice where you are. even though it’s fall it’s nice to be able to savor some warm days for the months ahead. this ice cream looks heavenly by the way.

  2. That sounds so good, I’m always pleasantly surprised with balsamic in sweet dishes. Also it’s never the wrong season for ice cream :)
