Season calendar

In Tenerife, due to its mild climate and favourable conditions, the strawberry season extends over a longer period than in most continental climates. Here is a general idea of the strawberry season calendar in Tenerife:

Preparation and Planting (Late Summer – Fall): Strawberry planting is generally done in late summer or fall.
Growth (Autumn – Winter): Strawberries begin to grow during the autumn and continue to develop throughout the winter. Tenerife’s mild climate allows for good plant development during these months.
Main Harvest (Winter – Spring): The strawberry harvest in Tenerife usually starts in winter and peaks in spring. This is earlier than in most regions of Europe, where the main harvest is in spring and summer.
Continued Harvesting (Spring – Early Summer): In some areas and under certain growing conditions, harvesting can continue into early summer.

Selection tips

Selecting good quality strawberries is key to enjoying their flavour and freshness. Here are some tips for choosing the best strawberries:

Color: Look for strawberries with a bright, uniform red color. Strawberries that are completely red are generally riper and more flavorful. Avoid those with white or green spots near the stem, as this indicates that they are not fully ripe.
Aroma: Ripe strawberries have a sweet and strong aroma. If you smell a pleasant, fruity aroma, it is a good sign of freshness and quality.
Size and Shape: Size does not necessarily affect sweetness, but medium-sized strawberries are usually juicier. Strawberries should be firm and full, not wrinkled or misshapen.
Surface Texture: The surface should be shiny and free of bruises, dark spots or mold.
Stems and Leaves: Stems and leaves should be fresh green and not wilted.
Avoid Excess Humidity: Strawberries in containers must be dry.

Conservation

The sooner you put them in the fridge, the better, and always unwashed. Discard any that may have mould or visible damage. Do not remove the stems or stalks.

Organic strawberries are wonderful. They have an authentic flavour, like those of yesteryear, and you can tell the quality. Perfect to eat alone or in desserts.
