Yes, you need some sourness to offset the hyper-sweet.

Re: IWLTS in 2020...
Why would you go to the bother of cutting strawberries in half but not hull them?

God, Ken. Being out and served a strawberry with its stalk still in and not hulled irritates me more than it should.

It's the worst. Second only to undressed salad.

Do you just eat the stalks?

Re: IWLTS in 2020...
I would want them hulled if they were in something, but left alone (just washed) if a bowl brought to the table. That's because the less fucking around with my food by other people, the better. (I bite off the stalks)

Me too. I like using the stalk as a handle if they're just on their own, ready to be dipped in cream and / or sugar

Re: IWLTS in 2020...
One of my pet hates in those cooking videos is people not taking the stalks off. Why would I want a cheese cake with a load of stalks on too?

Re: IWLTS in 2020...
This was in an afternoon tea (picture advertising). I don't get why you'd chop in half (making them dry out) but not remove the stalk. I don't like biting around the stalk but wouldn't mind hulling myself, but it seemed strange but to if she's taking time to prep them anyway.

Stalks on is absolutely unacceptable if they're in on a cake or something.

I don't even know what hulling is.

I thought it was removing the little seeds from the skin of the fruit
