Helpful hints
- This salad tastes best when fresh local strawberries are available in season.
- Soft goat cheese can be difficult to cut with a knife because of its soft texture. The easiest way is to use non-flavored dental floss. Take about a 6inch piece and hold in both hands. Use it to cut down into the goat cheese from top to bottom. This way you can cut smooth rounds that are not squished.
