On Valentine's Day, Strawberry "Charlotte" Makes Perfect End To Romantic Dinner.

The latest episode of BC Food News, hosted by Jennifer English, explores the rich history and delicious details of the Valentine's Day treat, the strawberry 'charlotte.' This elegant dessert, featuring a creamy filling encased in biscuits and fresh fruit, has royal origins, named after Queen Charlotte Sophia of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. The podcast outlines its evolution from a simple pudding in 1796 to a sophisticated dessert redesigned by French chef Marie-Antoine Carême around 1800. It highlights the role of organizations like Agritalia, A.O.A., La Deliziosa, Meridia, and Terra Orti backed by the European Commission through the 'I Love Fruit & Veg From Europe' program, promoting the dessert as a means of encouraging healthier, safer, and more sustainable diets. The listeners are urged to try the recipe themselves, available on the program’s website and social media pages.
