750 g strawberries
150 ml syrup, (strawberry syrup)
350 ml water

In a saucepan, mix the 150 ml strawberry syrup with 350 ml water and heat over medium heat for about 5 min until warm and steaming.
Squeeze out the excess water from the gelatine sheets and add them to the hot syrup mixture. Stir until completely dissolved.
Remove from heat and let cool for 10 min, then stir in the 4 cl strawberry liqueur.
Wash the 750 g strawberries, remove the stems, and cut into small pieces.
Place the strawberry pieces in a terrine mold and pour the cooled gelatine mixture over them.
Refrigerate for at least 5 hrs until fully set.
For a child-friendly version, omit the strawberry liqueur.

Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
