Vanilla Salted Shortbread with Macerated Strawberries · Jess Lea-Wilson

Both salt and sugar have the magic effect of drawing liquid out of fresh ingredients, softening them, and in the case of berries and delicate fruit like strawberries, creating a syrup that’s jammy and delicious.
Our vanilla salt is fragrant and adds welcome complexity to summer fruits, sweet shellfish and root vegetables like carrots and parsnips.
