Buying Blueberries

When you are buying blueberries from the supermarket look for berries that are firm and plump.  Berries are better when they are free of the stem and leaves.  Moisture causes berries to grow mold so the fruit should be dry and kept that way before use.

Often we want berries that are all the same uniform color - this is not nature at work, however reddish berries are not yet ready for eating.  Reddish berries are not ripe but can be used in baking, if they are baked completely.

Blueberries stored for a long time start to look shriveled and wrinkled, this is from dehydration - they can still be used however they are ready to go off.  Don’t buy them like this unless you are using them that day.
