Preparation Time:
Cooling Time:
Featuring Maple Syrup
4 portions
Metric Imperial

Ingredients

  • 3 cups fresh strawberries
  • 1 pack 300 g (300 ml) silken tofu or traditional sweetened dessert
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup (preferably amber syrup, for its rich flavour)
  • 2 tbsp chia or camelina seeds
  • 1 lime, zested

Method

  1. Use a food processor (or other type of electric mixer) to blend 300 g (2 cups) of the strawberries, the tofu, maple syrup, chia (or camelina) seeds, and the lime zest until smooth.
  2. Pour into a lidded bowl or four small containers. Slice remaining (150 g [1 cup]) strawberries on top. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour: the chia (or camelina) seeds will hydrate into a velvety texture. If you leave it longer, it will lend a pudding texture to it.

REFRIGERATION: At least 1 hour

KEEPS FOR: 5 days in the fridge

More about Maple

Maple syrup comes in four classifications, according to colour and taste.

At the start of sugaring season, syrup is generally clear, with a lightly sweet taste. It becomes darker and caramelized as the season goes on.

An unopened can of maple syrup keeps for many years.

Once the can is opened, syrup should be kept in an airtight container in a cool place.

100% pure maple butter contains no butter or dairy.

Like all 100% pure maple products, maple butter comes from the sap of the maple tree… and that’s all.
