What to do with blueberries?

If I go picking blueberries I end up with up to 44lb/20kg of berries and have to put them to use quickly.

Eating

I sort out the softest and most ripe berries and eat them immediately. I am usually having 2 blueberry mono-meals daily for the first 2 days and can use some of them up quickly.

Freezing

For smoothies and jams I can use frozen blueberries. I always wash and freeze berries in an airtight container once they are dry. Blueberries are an amazing snack when frozen, I let them thaw for 5 minutes and eat them like little candies.

Jam

Raw jam is a great way to consume blueberries and other berries if they are not very sweet. I have a jam recipe in the recipe section of this book.
