Kitchen Hint of the Day!

Buying Blackberries……….
Choose deeply colored, glossy berries that show no signs of having been crushed or bruised. As with all berries, check for mold before buying. Look for bright, uniform color; pass on darkened, dull berries.
It is best to store your blueberries in the fridge and wash just prior to eating. Berries are delicate and very perishable. If you wash them first and plan to store them for a long period of time in the refrigerator they can start to break down faster. Blueberries should last a week and a half or more!
