How To Hull Strawberries the Easy Way

The only problems with strawberries as I see it is that before you can use them, you have to take off their leafy green bonnets.

Hulling strawberries is not a big deal. Sure you can just lop them off at their shoulders with a paring knife, like a lot of people do, but I personally believe that strawberries deserve more than being unceremoniously decapitated.

They deserve a gentle hulling, one that helps them keep their beautiful shape, and one that does not waste even half an inch of their gloriousness.

There's two ways to do it; you can use a strawberry huller, they cost between $2 and $3; or you can use a plastic straw. Watch the vide to see how it's done. For the straw method, beginning at the tip of the strawberry, insert the straw up through to the top of the fruit. The hull will pop off. Pull the straw out through the bottom, and it’s done.
