Finally, the strawberry season began. My desired strawberries from the region in which to feel an irresistible taste and smell, not like these artificial that you can get in winter. Usually I like to eat strawberries sweet cream and a pinch of sugar if the strawberries are not sweet enough. But sometimes, for variety version of the pasta is also delicious. I didn't eat pasta with strawberries long time...

Strawberries peel the stalks and wash.  Crush strawberries with table fork (or a mixer, blender, but only for a few seconds, because larger pieces in the pasta taste better.) Add cream, sugar. Put the noodles cold into bowls, pour strawberry sauce. Decorated with fresh strawberries and whipped cream.
