Notes
Fully dissolve gelatin: Whisk until the liquid is completely clear so the filling firms evenly.
Use the strawberry syrup: Include all the syrup from the strawberries to maintain balanced flavor.
Press the crust firmly: Compact the crumb layer well so it supports the filling when cut.
Clean cuts: Freeze the dessert for 20 to 30 minutes before serving and wipe the blade after each slice, to keep the edges defined.
