 Strawberries need not be confined to dessert, says Denis Pelletier, chef
 at Restaurant Le Mouilin de St. Laurent on Ile d'Orleans. The island is
 one of the province's lushest strawberry-growing areas. The chef suggests
 serving this colourful salad with a semi-soft cheese as St. Nectaire.
 Make a salad dressing by combining vinegar, oil and water. Add chopped
 shallots and pepper to taste. Arrange sliced strawberries in a spiral
 formation on the spinach and drizzle with the dressing.
