(if a little bit’s good) More Is Better

Can you have too many strawberries? Especially when they came freshly picked from a farm in South Carolina? Believe it or not, someone told me I had too many when I brought home 2 gallons. After the strawberry shortcake (the best way) got a little too ordinary (Strawberry Shortcake should never get ordinary!) after a few days, I had to “get rid” of about a gallon. Here are the results, a Strawberry-Mascarpone Tart, and a Strawberry Custard Tart. (I also froze some for future use in or on ice cream.)
