In France, Strawberries were thought to be an aphrodisiac. A soup made of strawberries, thinned sour cream, borage, & powered sugar was served to newlyweds. A sweet and slightly tart strawberry sauce is paired with vanilla ice cream and garnished with even more fresh strawberries and your favorite toppings!
Two Rivers, Wisconsin claims that Druggist Edward Berners served the first ice cream sundae in 1881. According to the story, customer George Hallauer ordered an ice cream soda on a Sunday. Since ordinances at the time prohibited the sale of ice cream sodas on the Sabbath, Berners came up with a compromise and served the ice cream in a dish minus the soda. He topped it with chocolate syrup and called it a Sundae.
To make the strawberry ice cream topping, sliced fresh strawberries are cooked gently with sugar and a squeeze of lemon, then thickened slightly with cornstarch to give the final sauce a luscious consistency that clings so well to your spoon.
