  • Summary

    Juicy strawberries poached with vanilla and peppercorns make a deliciously simple, lightly sweet, and good-for-you ending to a summer meal. They are delicious on their own and also pair beautifully with creamy Greek yogurt or vanilla ice cream. Peppercorns add a spicy note and a touch of heat.

    Ingredients

    • 1 pound strawberries (halved if large), stems left intact (optional)
    • 1 cup water
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    • 3 strips (each 2 inches long) lemon zest
    • 1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns, lightly crushed
