14 DAY TRIAL // The California Strawberry Commission has announced its free Strawberries application for iPhone and iPod touch. Featuring more than 50 mouth-watering strawberry recipes, the app has been developed by a group of people who relentlessly scoured the web for the most scrumptious strawberry recipes from some of the top food bloggers and chefs around the world. Strawberries, according to the California Strawberry Commission, are among the healthiest foods in the world.
"I'm excited to have one of my recipes included in this app because I enjoy sharing my passion for cooking that goes all the way back to when I was in the fourth grade," Michael Ruhlman, food writer and blogger behind Ruhlman.com, said. "This is a great way to further inspire people to recognize the importance and ease of preparing good and healthy food in their own kitchens."
"As the nation's leading producer of strawberries it's exciting to see the passion that people of all ages have for strawberries when it comes to eating them – and cooking with them," Mark Murai, president, California Strawberry Commission, added. "This app was created to help people easily share some of that passion and to help people learn new ways to eat strawberries. We appreciate all the great cooks and bloggers who contributed their recipes to help us do that."
The main features of the Strawberries recipe app include: more than 50 recipes, categorized by dish type; the ability to access favorite recipes — and shopping lists — in the kitchen, at the store, or anywhere; the ability to share recipes on Twitter, Facebook and email, as well as access nutrition information; and, finally, the possibility to connect with the California Strawberry Commission on Facebook, Twitter and the web.
The Strawberries app for the iPhone and iPod Touch is available for free download from the iTunes App Store. You can use the link below to grab it right away (iPhone OS 3.0 or later required).
