Surprisingly excellent. I didn't have plain balsamic vinegar in my pantry, I thought it was raspberry...but nope it was pomegramate balsamic vinegar....well it worked out great. I was very skeptical about doing this. But the strawberries needed to be used up and what a excellent recipe. I wouldn't do anything different then I did with this recipe. Bravo, to the one that recommended ito me. YUM!!

I've been making this recipe from the allrecipes.com from the American site. I stumbled across it when a friend suggested I make it. Simply delish, super easy and very pleasant to your taste buds. I have used in the past pomagranite balsamic vinegar. I totally recommend this fresh and delighful dish. It never stays long in my house when made.

You really need a good quality balsamic vinegar with this dish. I allowed the strawberries to soak in the sugar for a couple hours before serving. Add the vinegar and pepper only just before serving or they will not add any flavour.

I made this salad for easter as we had a bunch of strawberries and didn't want them to go to waste - it was quite good. I must say, if you do make it, don't make it ahead of time and let it sit before you serve it, otherwise you lose the flavour of the balsamic vinegar. I noticed when I made it you could taste it, and it was a nice combination, but by the time we actually served dinner (an hour later), it just tasted like sweet strawberries. Give it a go, just serve it right away!

This is v good. It'd impress your guests, while being terribly easy to do. I think one needs to soak the berries with the sugar for longer than 10 mins, more like 45 mins if possible - I also added basil leaves, for fragrance. The balsamic vinegar and pepper, served separately for your guest to add himself, gives the sweetness a subtle complexity. Good accompaniment for a savoury breakfast dish.

This recipe was great! I served it for Easter lunch along with 6 other dishes and lots of people said it was one of the best. Don't let other reviews scare you off from this delectable fruit dish. I thought it was great. The pepper and vinegar added a perfect touch to a sugary strawberry salad. I wasn't sure about how it would turn out when I looked at the recipe. But, I tried it and I'm glad I did.
