# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The sweet heat combination keeps people coming back for just one more chip
  • It takes fifteen minutes to throw together but looks like you planned it for days
02 -
  • The fruit will release juice as it sits so do not add extra liquid or you will end up with soup
  • This is best served the same day because the strawberries start to break down after that
03 -
  • Use a sharp knife and take your time with the dicing because messy cuts make for messy eating
  • Let the fruit come to room temperature before serving so all the flavors really pop
