Beautiful summer dessert using fresh berries and a splash of pear liqueur. Enjoy a la carte or a la mode. Exceptionally lovely on the Fourth of July. Serve berries by themselves or over vanilla gelato, with a small amount of excess liquid - but it should not be a berry soup.
Ingredients
- 1.25 cups white sugar
- 0.5 cups water
- 0.25 cups pear liqueur
- 1 pound fresh strawberries , hulled
- 1 pint blueberries
- 1 pint fresh blackberries
Instructions

1
Combine sugar with water in a saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes; remove from heat and let stand 5 more minutes.

Gently combine strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries in a large bowl and pour syrup over the berries to coat. Allow berries to stand for about 3 hours to absorb flavors. Mixture can stand up to 3 days if desired.

Instant Pot Hard-Boiled Eggs
These Instant Pot hard-boiled eggs turn out perfectly set every single time for me! The whites are cooked until tender and the yolks are hard without being chalky. If you chill the eggs in cold water after pressure cooking them, they peel easily.

Korean Soft Tofu Stew (Soon Du Bu Jigae)
This is an easy and authentic version of Korean tofu stew. I used to eat this every day at a very popular restaurant. I befriended a woman who worked there and she gave me the recipe. It's very versatile. Small pieces of meat or seafood can be added. It's thick and great in the winter and can be made very mild or very spicy. I've seen some recipes on the internet for this dish that are the American version. They may be good too but this one is authentic.
