Picking and Keeping Picking blueberries is a simple matter. Choose blueberries that are plump and firm with a light powdery gray-blue color. Blueberries keep longer than any other berry. When refrigerated - from ten days to two weeks. Berries should not be washed until ready for use. Freezing Freeze a supply of blueberries so you can enjoy them all year long. All you need do is put them in the freezer. Dry Berries Before Freezing. Wet berries freeze in a clump. Dry berries freeze separately and pour out like marbles. Put them in the freezer and in January enjoy Sunday breakfast with blueberry pancakes or muffins to remind you of summer fun and blueberries. |
