Strawberries give a new twist to the classic cherries jubilee. The brilliant red syrup is a perfect foil for vanilla ice cream or to serve drizzled over pound or angel food cake.

Ingredients
Method
In large skillet over medium heat, stir together orange rind strips and juice, sugar and vanilla until sugar is dissolved, about 4 minutes. Bring to boil over medium-high heat.
Whisk cornstarch with 3 tbsp (50 mL) water; whisk into pan and boil, whisking constantly, until slightly thickened and glossy, about 1 minute. Discard orange rind strips. Add strawberries; cook just until softened, about 2 minutes.
In small saucepan, heat brandy over medium heat; remove from heat. With long match, ignite brandy and pour, still flaming, over warm berries. When flame dies, serve immediately.
