In ancient times the only known strawberry was the wild variety, which grew spontaneously in the woods of whole Europe. The bigger fruit plant was absent, until in 1714 a French lieutenant offered to the Sun King a strawberry from Chile: mixing the 2 varieties, they obtained the actual strawberries, now spread in all Europe. To prepare our preserve we use just strawberries and cane sugar.
