Strawberries in vinegar
Instructions:
- Put the sugar into a wide saucepan and place the pan over low-to-medium heat.
- You will see darker patches of caramel starting to appear.
- Stir to make an even, dark caramel.
- Carefully pour in the boiling water using a metal ladle. The caramel will bubble dramatically, so be careful not to burn yourself. Let the caramel cool a little.
- Pour in the vinegar and mix well.
- Cool the caramel in the fridge. It will become thick.
- Hull (remove the stems and leaves from) the strawberries, then cut in half lengthwise.
- Put the strawberries into a bowl, then pour over the vinegar caramel.
- Marinate in the fridge for 1 hour before serving.
