Is berry picking part of your summer activities? Growing up, we always enjoyed picking strawberries. There is something about picking berries straight from the berry patch and taking right home. So fresh! Yum …. juicy, flavorful, SO refreshing! I love the ceramic berry baskets they make now, like these. Whether you get them straight from the berry patch or from the grocery store, blueberries sure do make a lot of things taste good!
One thing that is great about berries, specifically blueberries is how easy they are to freeze. I like to stock up when they are on sale and put them in the freezer for a later use.
TheKitchn.com says,
To store blueberries in the freezer, freeze the berries in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet so that they can freeze quickly and evenly. Store the frozen berries in a large zip-top freezer bag, this way you can stack several bags together and easily open the bag to remove just the right amount when needed. Remember to label and date the bag before storing. Alternatively, you can move them to a freezer-safe container with a lid for longer storage. Frozen blueberries are best within six months, but can be stored for up to 10.”
