Quick removal of the stem of strawberries

Spring is coming and the weather is asking for lighter desserts and treats like juicy fruit. I love strawberries but they’re a real pain to clean and sometimes when I can’t be bothered I end up wasting half of the fruit while cutting off their stem. Well those days are over, I found this trick to have them ready easily and with minimal waste.

After thoroughly rinsing your strawberries under cool water insert a plastic straw from the bottom of the fruit to the top making sure you go through the centre of the strawberry, push the straw up until it comes out from the top neatly removing its stem and leaves.
