Building the Perfect Strawberry Shortcake


Just look at this and tell me that it doesn't scream "summer".  It should.  Strawberry shortcake is the quintessential dessert of the solstice.  But to do justice to the season, you have to be pretty finicky about how you make this confection. 

And we are.

We start with a fresh baked biscuit, then add an initial layer of fresh strawberries with a little sugar and just a bit of triple sec (you heard us right) on half of the biscuit.  Then we spritz a nice layer of real whipped cream, add the other half of the biscuit, then top the whole concoction off with a dollop of whipped cream and some more strawberries.

If you want to see the magic happen in video, just go to our Facebook page at Brick Oven Bistro and let Lara show you how we take care of business downtown.  OK...here's one last look...
