Dessert is sacred and essential to one's well being and you cannot fight us on this. Stressed is dessert spelled backwards hence, we are beating mid-week blues this Wednesday with a glass of Strawberry Parfait which is sure to paint our gloomy moods, red with love.

Parfait is a French word to describe a custard-like puree or a rich cold dessert which is whipped up by boiling cream, egg, sugar and syrup or fruits with a smooth consistency. Since strawberry season is currently on the go in India, it is the perfect time to indulge in some and that’s when we stumbled upon a recipe of Strawberry Parfait which is super easy to make.

Benefits:

Strawberries are sodium-free, fat-free, cholesterol-free, low-calorie food and are packed with fibres and vitamins. They protect the heart by increasing HDL which is good cholesterol, guard against cancer and lower the blood pressure.

Their strong astringent, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidants properties not only protect skin from harmful UV rays but also treat burns and delay ageing. Strawberries prevent hair loss and the vitamin C in them encourages iron absorption and encourages better hair growth.
