METHOD:

Easy way to cut up strawberries that is also fast:

  1. I used to place Strawberries  in a colander and rinse them with cool water.  Then spread the strawberries in a single layer on a clean kitchen towel or layers of paper towels and pat them dry.
  2. Now start by picking off the green tops from every strawberry. Just try to get most of it off.
  3. Cut the tops off the strawberries with a knife. Don't cut the nice red part, just cut the raw, green or white part off. (To make juice or milkshake or smoothies, it is not necessary to cut the strawberries)
  4. Slice each of them lengthwise to get  2 equal parts.
  5. To easily cut strawberries,  turn each strawberry upside-down onto the freshly cut top. Now, cut right down the middle. Turn the strawberry around and cut down the middle again to make quartered strawberries. Repeat for each berry.

  • Pour the milkshake out into the chilled glasses and garnish with strawberries. Slurp immediately!
