If you don't want to feel like you're eating a tasteless sponge, wash them quickly under running water, but above all without stalking them first.
Otherwise, the water will seep through the place where you tore off the peduncle and soak the strawberry with water.
To wash your strawberries quickly and well, the trick is to use a colander rather than a salad bowl. Water and residue will drain away faster and your strawberries won't get waterlogged.
This trick will allow you to better preserve their taste and avoid adding sugar.
You just need to water them with a little water while turning them over to remove the remaining residue. Don't forget to gently dry them with a towel or better with a paper towel.
It's good, you can finally hull them and serve them as they are, but also enjoy them in a fruit salad or with fromage blanc...
