Before J and I went camping, I threw a few pints of strawberries into the freezer that were growing tiny, white, delicate fungal beards. Okay, some were- I am frugal but not cheap enough to save the truly rotten. Since we have the tiniest freezer created by man, I needed to remove bruised berries to make room for some bags of tamales that were not consumed during our forest romp. I was left with a pile of frozen berries. What to do? Make balsamic, black pepper, strawberry preserves that's what. Easy peasy. I didn't really measure... I placed the three ingredients in a pot in amounts by taste and simmered until it had a nice thick consistency. I thought it would pair well with brie but it was the sharp cheddar that nailed it.
