The chef on my favorite tv show says i can do this!

My absolute favorite tv show these last few weeks has been TOP CHEF!!!!

It's like Survivor, but with CHEFS...and they never vote you off an island--they just say "pack up your knifes and leave!" And it doesn't matter if i don't know how to cook and once broiled a cake...which, by the way, if you like cake batter...it's not too bad...it has a nice crispy texture to it with a subtle slightly burned flavor...but is a bitc* to frost!

However, my favorite sexy judge in the world says that ANYONE...(so i'm guessing he means me) can DO THIS RECIPE...sooooo....here goes...

TOP CHEF TOM COLICCHIO'S Strawberries with Balsamic Vinegar

Top Chef Tom says use the freshiest strawberries you can find and that this taste pretty good over vanilla ice cream or yogurt...

1 quart strawberries, cleaned and quartered
1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. superfine sugar
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

Sprinkle sugar over strawberries, tossing gently. Let mixture sit about 15 minutes until the sugar dissoves. Add balsamic vinegar. Taste and adjust sweetness as desired.

And if it doesn't work...Walgreens has a sale on chocolate candy bars this week.

Just for the heck of it...i tried this recipe this past weekend when it hit the 70's just because it seemed like the right thing to try when the weather felt like summer...the taste was AWESOME!!!

Go ahead and try this and then pair it with pound cake, but make sure your wearing loose fitting clothes...i'm not sure what the calories are on this but i'm betting it's not cheap.
