Article: Put the berries in a strainer and hold it over the sink under the faucet. Turn on the cold water and rinse the strawberries off thoroughly to remove any dirt or grime. If your faucet has a spray nozzle, use this to give the berries a shower and cover more surface area at once. Hold a strawberry in 1 hand and pinch the green top leaves firmly between 2 fingers on your other hand. Gently twist and pull to remove the stem. The stems are edible, but they don't have a nice taste or texture, so removing them leaves you with just the tasty berry. Don't slice off the tops because it just wastes some of the tasty red fruit near the top. Make sure to wait until after you wash the strawberries and are ready to slice them to remove the tops.

What is a summary?
Rinse the strawberries under cool water. Pick the green top stems off every strawberry.
