🍓 The "Sweet Meets Seed" Strawberry Coconut Dip
This dip uses a "double strawberry" method: a smooth, blended base and a concentrated compote swirled through for texture and punch.
Ingredients
The Strawberry-Lime Base:
-
1 cup Fresh strawberries (hulled)
-
1 cup Coconut cream (chilled, use the thick part from the top of the can)
-
2-3 tbsp Brown sugar (adjust to taste)
-
1 Zest and juice of one lime
-
½ tsp Vanilla extract (optional)
The Strawberry Compote Swirl:
-
½ cup Finely diced strawberries
-
1 tbsp Brown sugar
-
A squeeze of lime juice
Instructions
1. Make the Compote (The "Flavor Pop")
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced strawberries, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, and a squeeze of lime. Simmer for 5–8 minutes until the strawberries break down and the liquid becomes syrupy. Let this cool completely.
2. Blend the Base
In a high-speed blender, combine the 1 cup of strawberries, coconut cream, brown sugar, lime zest, and lime juice. Blend until completely smooth and "dreamy."
3. The "Pro" Refinement (The Strainer)
Place a fine-mesh strainer over a chilled bowl. Pour the blended mixture through the strainer, using a whisk or spatula to push it through.
Why? This removes the tiny strawberry seeds and coconut fibers, leaving you with that silky, "elevated" mouthfeel mentioned in the description.
4. The Final Swirl
Gently fold the cooled strawberry compote into the strained cream. Don't over-mix—you want beautiful red streaks of concentrated strawberry throughout the pale pink cream.
5. Serve
Transfer to a shallow bowl and serve alongside a pile of Jöey’s Nordic Seed Crisps. The salt and "crunch of 7 organic super seeds" will cut through the richness of the coconut and the sweetness of the berries.
