01 -
Rinse strawberries thoroughly under cold water, hull to remove green tops, pat dry, and place on a cutting board.
02 -
Cut the strawberries into even slices and transfer them to a mixing bowl to ensure uniform maceration and presentation.
03 -
Sprinkle granulated sugar and pour in vanilla extract over the sliced strawberries. Gently mix to coat without crushing the fruit.
04 -
Allow the mixture to rest at room temperature for 15 minutes so the sugar extracts natural juices forming a light syrup.
05 -
Spoon the macerated strawberries into serving glasses or bowls and top generously with whipped cream. Serve immediately.
